Analysis of Scrutiny
Kerjean Rithal 2004 (Victoria hospital carries , st lucia)
She was left unattended
In her vicious thoughts
It consumed her
She got lost
We look closely missed red spots
It happen under our scrutiny
Slipped through the cracks
Crawled down the cold glass of hard earned truths
The room stayedticking, a live bomb
She stayed within
The throbbing fuse
We handled this carelessly
It happened under my scrutiny
It's all my fault
She was being criticized without no wrong being bullied for being only human
She sacrificed more than we have done
All the while being under scrutiny
