a minority of surgeons need
to have their knives confiscated
their ineptitude with these instruments
can be clearly demonstrated

injuries from scalpel croppers
are carried for a lifetime
poor usage of a cutting tool
causes culpability every time

litigation in court is awaiting
those who can't handle a knife
they'll be tried for maiming
their patients for life

redress must be sought
in the form of compensation
by those who carry scars
out of botched up operations

we entrust our limbs and organs
to the medical fraternity
and they are obliged
to treat us with the utmost care and dignity
