Poetry Contest
The National Poetry Contest had come down to two semifinalists; A Yale graduate and a redneck from Texas. They were given a word, then allowed two minutes to study the word and come up with a poem that contained the word. The word they were given was "TIMBUKTU."
First to recite his poem was the Yale graduate. He stepped to the microphone and said:
Trekked a lonely caravan
Men on camels,
two by two
Destination -
Timbuktu.
The crowd went crazy! No way could the redneck top that, they thought.
The redneck calmly made his way to the microphone and recited:
Me and Tim a-huntin' went
Met three whores in a pop-up tent
They was three,
and we was two
So I bucked one, and
Timbuktu
The redneck won hands down.
*No pun intended.
