    The Australian Poetry Competition held in the Sydney Opera House had come down to two
    finalists;
    A) The 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 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 was two
    So I bucked one, and Timbuktu .
    The aboriginal won.
    Still Searching,
    Dick Whittington
