Australian Poetry Competition

The Australian Poetry Competition

The Australian poetry competition had come down to two finalists:

a university graduate and an old Aboriginal.

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 university graduate. He stepped to the microphone and 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 old Aboriginal top that they thought.

But the old Aboriginal 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 TIM BUKTU*

The old Aboriginal won!
