Physicists hunt the Higgs Boson,
Building powerful accelerators
Having very large equators,
And in particle collisions,
With uncommon great precision
Try to find the boson's trace
In this sub-atomic race.
Latest theories propose
That bosons mass in matter cause.
But, if scientists succeed
In this monumental deed,
And with confidence converse
What happens in the universe,
Will their efforts be in vain
To diminish human pain,
Lessen hunger, help mankind,
And repair our world maligned?
Will they wars eradicate,
And improve our human fate?
