Scaling down is an issue
be it in wealth or weight
a decrease in wealth
provokes a jeer and a tear.
a diminish in weight
calls for a cheer at times
notifies a fear most times
both happen unexpectedly
both occur now and then
both are not in our hands
but prudence helps to maintain
a healthy balance of both
be careful and work towards an equanimity.
