The National Poetry Contest was now down to the last two contestants;
a Yale graduate and a Jamaican Rasta man. They were given a word and were allowed two
minutes to study the word and 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 sand, trecked a lonely caravan;
Men on camelstwo by two; their destination? Timbuktu .

A big applause went up! No way could the Rasta man top that, they thought.
The Rasta man calmly made his way to the microphone and recited:

Me and Tim, while out on the road,
Got cornered by three thieves, armed with board.
They were three, and we were two
So I bucked one and Timbuktu .

The crowd went wild!! The Rasta man won.
