A poetry contest was held and the two final contestants were selected. A guy from Manchester Iowa, and a man attending Harvard. The poems submitted were so good that a winner could not be decided.
They were invited to New York for the tie breaker. The judge told them they would receive one word, and they would have 5 minutes to compose a poem and the recite it to the audience. The word he told them was Timbucktwo.
After five minutes he called them together and said by the coin flip the man from Harvard would go first.
He walked onto stage, cleared his throat and began. The air is as dry as the Rio Grande, as we cross the burning sand, camels traveling two by two, destination Timbucktwo.
The crowed loved it, the man from Iowa walked to the stage waited for order to be restored, cleared his throat and began. Tim and I a camping went, we met three girls in a pop up tent, they were three and we were two, I bucked one and Tim bucked two.
