The National Poetry Contest had come down to two semifinalists, a Yale graduate and a redneck from Alabama. They were given a word, then allowed two minutes to 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,
"Slowly across the desert sands
Trekked a lonely caravan.
Men on camels, two by two
Destination Timbuktu."
The crowd went crazy. No way could the Alabama redneck top that, they thought. The Alabama high school dropout 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 Alabama redneck won hands down
