Narrative poem describes labor parades and unions with vivid dialect. It catalogs various trades from painters to blacksmiths and glassblowers, noting their roles and attire while questioning the leadership and purpose of the labor movement. The piece blends social commentary with regional color and colorful street scenes.
The speaker recalls a crowded scene with tin dress wearers and a parade of attire in a woods race event. A rousing procession includes a debate labeled labor n'union and a warning about future floods of hardship if the reader fails to heed the warning.
