It is the poet's duty to keep the poem from spinning off into speculation.
"Three guys came, drunk, and the drunkest said he couldn't find his mother's gravestone, and they started a fight."
"Ed went out and they threatened to beat him up because they said we got rid of her grave."
"Did you find it?"
"Yeah, it took awhile to get the proper name, and, of course, they were in the wrong graveyard."
