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.
