OP's Poetry Contest



OutPersonal's Cultural Department decided to hold a poetry contest. After a couple hours the Poetry Contest had come down to two,



The sweet Iowa boy Bret



and that used car salesman from Texas, Richard



They were given a word, then 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 Bret. 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 Richard top that, they thought. Then the used car salesman calmly made his way to the microphone and recited:



Me and Tim a huntin’ went.
Met three whores in a pop up tent.
They was three, and we was two,
So I bucked one, and Timbuktu.

I regret not meeting your blog standards but having not been around quite as long I would not even have a clue that it was an old joke. The modifications do meet my 2015 OP Blog guidelines; stretching the truth, incorporating my friends, and leaving most who visit my blog smiling.

I'd say it is a tie. Both Richard and Brett are winners, and share the OP prize of 2 nights in Nantuckett with the OP censor.

Old joke,,,new joke...who cares? It's funny.

Some of the guys on this site are old jokes, so I wouldn't worry about it.
