FRAN C Posted July 12, 2014 Share Posted July 12, 2014 TIMBUKTU 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. The old aboriginal calmly made his way to the microphone and recited: "Me and Tim a huntin' went, Met three whores in a pop up tent, They were three, and we was two So I bucked one, and tim buktu." The aboriginal won. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
