    The Newfie

    The National Poetry Contest had come down to two semi-finalists: An American Yale graduate, and a Newfoundlander. They were given a single word,then allowed two minutes to come up with a poem that contained the word.

    The word they were given was " TIMBUKTU "

    The Yale graduate steps to the microphone and says:

    "SLOWLY 'CROSS THE DESERT SAND

    TREKKED A LONELY CARAVAN.

    CAMELS MARCHING, TWO BY TWO

    DESTINATION - TIMBUKTU".


    The crowd went crazy! No way could the Newfie top that, they thought.
    The Newfoundlander calmly made his way to the microphone and Recited:

    "ME AND TIM A HUNTIN' WENT,

    MET T'REE WHORES IN A POP-UP TENT.

    DEY WAS T'REE, AND WE WAS TWO,

    SO I BUCKED ONE, AND TIMBUKTU!"

    The Newfie won hands down.
