A taunting, ritual-sounding poem that turns rural materials and burial language into a threat of contempt.

The poem opens in the voice of someone watching a situation clarify — 'look'in clear' — and what becomes clear is threat. Singers, caps, management: the vocabulary mixes entertainment and authority into a single system of unaccountability.

The apostrophe in 'look'in' and the colloquial grammar are not errors but voice — the poem sounds like someone speaking from a specific place, and that specificity is its authority.
