AN ALMOST CURE

Location

With an early exposure to part-time jobs

Across summer holidays and weekends

Working in a pharmacy or pathology lab

Biological science was the career choice

Then fulltime in research pharmacology

With day release to gain honours degree

And then it led onto a Masters, you see

All that time with a government licence

For working with animals of many kinds

With several scientific papers published

Yet I found no answer for all humanity

A drug to treat and solve mental issues

That still pervade the wider human race

Being disappointed at such a dead end

I left that career to seek something new

Still scientific, but emerging technology

Computer software, offering a solution

As for many, no longer an almost cure

 

Anaesthetised mice

Carotid cannulation

Now I’d need glasses
