Anonimowy tekst, który swego czasu znalazłem w odmętach Internetu. Kilka lat czekał na swój moment, aż w końcu - na wieść o koronowaniu Angeli Merkel na Królową Polski i Europy - przydreptał na łamy bloga. Jeśli ktoś jest maniakiem i lubi grzebać się w językach obcych może zerknąć na tekst W.K. Lessinga z lat 40-tych pt. Meihem In Ce Klasrum, który posłużył za wzór nieznanemu twórcy.
