An Australian Poetry Competition held in the Sydney Opera House had come down to two finalists;
A) A university graduate.
B) An old aboriginal.
They were given a word, and then allowed two minutes to study the word and come up with a short four line poem that contained the word.
The word they were given was ' TIMBUKTU '.
First to recite his poem was the university graduate. He stepped up 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 gentleman 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 ..
