Small & Big

a small man dies somewhere he doesn't make news they are no news herds of small men dying everyday. big men only capture the headlines big politicians big deceivers no petty thieves or pickpockets but swindlers of nations you are awed by the headlines the big bold letters big disasters mishaps genocide mass extinction and may miss in one corner a news of a man of no imprint a small man's death in small print an ill-paid half starved courier his head crushed by a brick somewhere not a thief nor a beggar but looking forever an address to deliver going from door to door with his back breaking loads on alien bylanes and roads where someone suspecting him a thief broke his head with a brick the small man in his death made it to the news only if you noticed it from under big prints.
