The Kill Joy And The Trouble Man In A Blues Ballad
A fragmentary dialect poem depicts the trouble man as a tireless worker who dampens others spirits. He is described amid sorrow and conflict, with lines about his mouth and stubborn arguments, as communities face hardship and mock the idea of relief.
