The National Poetry Contest had come down to 2 semi-finalists:
A Yale graduate and a Newfoundlander.
They were given a single word, then allowed two minutes to come up
with a poem that contained that word.
The word they were given was 'TIMBUKTU'.
First to recite his poem was the Yale Graduate.
He stepped up to the microphone & said.....
SLOWLY ACROSS THE DESERT SAND
TREKKED A LONELY CARAVAN
MEN ON CAMELS, TWO BY TWO
DESTINATION - TIMBUKTU!!
The crowd went crazy!
No way could the Newfie top that they thought.
The Newfoundlander calmly made his way to the microphone and
recited....
ME AND TIM A HUNTIN' WE WENT
MET THREE WHORES IN A POP-UP TENT
THEY WAS THREE, AND WE WAS TWO...
SO I BUCKED ONE, AND TIMBUKTU!!
The Newfie won hands down!!
