The proposal has been submitted.
So many hours we thought it through.
We understand it might not land,
and although our aims were true.
Yet, an itch won’t let me rest.
Even though we tried our best
to explain the idea,
the methods, and evaluative schemes,
it’s possible our words won’t screen.
Did we mention diversity?
Or was it all American citizenry?
We’re blessed, I guess to not study sex,
but rather the homogeneity of science-ness.
And what if we win an award?
What will happen then?
Will the money come through?
Will the effort be allowed to pursue
all the things it wants to do?
Or, will this dream be pulled down the drain?
We propose you listen to This Week in Science.
