Four million dollars, Laurie Glimcher
Plus corporate boards O greedy Glimcher
Rich and important, research dimmer,
No time at all for thoughts to simmer
Shine little fraud-worm, glimmer glimmer
While Harvard’s rep gets dimmer, dimmer
Look out! The software’s gotcha, folks.
It’s coming for your hoax.
