Most likely a repost but still funny.....

THE NATIONAL POETRY CONTEST HAD COME DOWN TO TWO:
A YALE GRADUATE AND A REDNECK FROM TENNESSEE
THEY WERE GIVEN A WORD, THEN ALLOWED
TWO MINUTES TO STUDY THE WORD AND COME UP WITH A POEM.

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 SAND,
TREKKED A LONELY CARAVAN.
MEN ON CAMELS, TWO BY TWO,
DESTINATION: TIMBUKTU .'


THE CROWD WENT CRAZY!
NO WAY COULD THE REDNECK TOP THAT.

AS THE REDNECK CALMLY MADE HIS WAY TO THE
MICROPHONE AND RECITED:

'ME AND TIM, A' HUNTIN' WE WENT.
MET THREE GALS IN A POP-UP TENT.
THEY WAS THREE, AND WE WAS TWO.
SO I BUCKED ONE, AND TIMBUKTU .'

THE REDNECK WON.
