A  String  Of Pearls, Like  A  Necklace. 
   Glowing In Offensive Colors. Luring.   
                                          
                                  
           Mall           
                                  
                                          
 A Few  Ways To Get  Betrayed: Being Sold 
 Broken  Items Or Mimicry, Being Recorded 
 (For  What Purpose?),  Being Ascribed  A 
 Negative  Value And Getting Kicked  Out, 
    Or Beaten, Getting Requisitioned To   
 Operate  Some Facet Of The  Body  (Being 
 Cared  For  Enough To  Fear  Losing  Its 
 Favor,  Yet  Not Enough To  Meaningfully 
                 Survive)                 
                                          
 Evokes The  Sense Of Scavenging, But  It 
 Is A Projection And  A Mirage - It'S All 
  Controlled And Coreographed, Presented  
 Like  A  Gift,  A  Reward  For  Nothing. 
         For Being So Beautiful.          
                                          
 With That  In Mind,  Is  There A Choice? 
                                          
 It'S Easy  To  Grow Lazy With Its  Ease, 
 And  Leave Your Network Of Minor Streams 
 And Animal  PoolS  In Dissaray, And With 
 The Waning Of  Your Secret  Wells,  Your 
 Depencence   On  The  Mall   Will  Grow.
