Disclaimer, Disclaimer, Disclaimer!!!
With each test and trial, science finds new ways to thrive,
Pushing past boundaries.
Through the microscope, science sees the wonders of life,
Large yet very small.
Inside every cell, DNA holds life’s blueprint,
Science reads its code.
Stars light up the void, Cosmic darkness all around,
Science will explore.
Clever problems solved, animal minds amazing,
Blair has got the proof.
Within our own skulls, the brain’s electric light show,
Kiki points the way.
Ancient bones and tools, the past revealed under the earth,
Justin brings to light.
This week’s disclaimer, somehow stuck in haiku mode
The show won’t be so.
Sit back and relax, because This Week in Science
