5 Lines in Aid of a Public Understanding of Science

My job is to find the Higgs Boson
with experiments I hope might expose one,
and when asked, day to day,
to define it I say:
'a neutrino without any clothes on'.

by which i mean of course that a boson lacks the exclusivity through 'identity' of a fermion.
Hope this helps.
