Protocol
Investigation
Research with some compensation
Dr. Swan and thoughtful crew
“Procedures” for a day or two
“Informed consent”
(For this and that)
Collections in a plastic “hat”
Private room, downtown view
(Bed-time snack provided)
It works for me, a free-lance poet
That’s what I’ve decided!
Open-label, randomized
Controlled, cross over study
Telephone in your room
(Keep in touch, write a buddy)
Even my friends have new respect
For simple blood and urine
Where’s Jan this morning? Someone asked
Involved with research, for cure-in’.
