香塗れる塔にな寄りそ川隈の屎鮒食めるいたき女奴
kau nureru tau ni na yori so kahakuma no kusohuna hameru itaki meyatuko
Don't come near the incense-fragrant tower, you horrible, river-toilet shit-carp-eating bitch.
This was improvised by one Naga no Okimaro, the challenge being that his poem had to include the words "incense", "tower", "toilet", "shit", "carp", and "slave" "servant, inferior".
