TIMBUKTU
A Poetry Competition was held in the Baton Rouge had come down to two finalists;
A) An LSU graduate.
VS
B) Boudreaux.
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 LSU 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 Boudreaux top that, they thought.
Boudreaux calmly made his way to the microphone and recited;
Me and Tim a huntin' went
Met three hoes in a pop up tent
They were three, and we were two
So I bucked one, and Timbuktu .
Boudreaux won.
