Beauty Queens

Near Abu Dhabi, beauty queens Must have expressive eyes. Their droopy lips and shapely humps Might help them earn a prize. The competition’s very fierce; Big bucks are the reward. Contestants, in the thousands, Strut around, appearing bored. The winners, wearing necklaces Designed to look like gold, Bring honor to their owners Right before each camel’s sold.
