sizes in real life

the small buttons can die
the small blouses can die
the big buildings can die
the big boutiques can die

yet the rich might not die
the mediocre might have lost a life
those well-off, they die not
the mid-level who-knows-who, who-knows-what

the small villain dies
but the big villain dies not
and all the small killers die
never the big killer does
and the small robbers will always die
but no, never will the big robbers

in the end though only the dust will rest
and erased as time keeps its track 
of all those that can be measured and not
nothing will endure in the end

ps: and that’s the common obituary for all the pants and petticoats regardless of their sizes in real life
