Posted by Darrin on 5/10/2006, 8:55 pm The word they were given was "Timbuktu." First to recite his poem was the Yale graduate. He stepped to the microphone and said... Slowly acroos the desert sand The crowd wet crazy! No way could the redneck top that, they thought. The redneck calmly made his way to the microphone and recited... Me and Tim a huntin' went, The redneck won, hands down!

The National Poetry Contest had come down to teo semi-finalists, a Yale graduate and a redneck from Arkansas. They were given a word, then allowed two minutes to study the word and come up with a poem that contained the word.
Trekked a lonely caravan,
Men on camels, two by teo,
Destination-Timbuktu.
Met three whores in a pop up tent.
They was three, and we was two,
So i bucked one, and Timbuktu.
