On the day

that it was announced in Geneva
that the Higgs boson-particle
might have been discovered
at a cost of some billions of euros,
another hundred elephants
were trapped and tortured
for their tusks in Africa
(that means 36,000 every year),

and in the mountains above Geneva
young women at a Finishing School
learned how to eat oranges
with a knife and fork.
