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 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 were two

So I bucked one, and Timbuktu .


The aboriginal won.
