I, too, used to think that poetry was meaning cloaked. That was before I became a hungry reader of poetry. Now I see that the poetry I love is not cloaking something it could say more simply or less metaphorically; the metaphor is the only way to say that thing (usually about connection between two outwardly unconnected things).
Please, if you get a chance, tell more about this rice installation. What does it look like?

They will be changing the stats as they go along…it will be interesting to see what they come up with.
