Alcohol
doesn't work at all
anymore--
The last good drunk has waved goodbye--
Well it gets me warm
but I can't perform
when I'm floored
and your bright ideas just hurt my eyes.

I took the #WidemanChallenge, in which a few literary critics, bloggers and journalists spent the end of 2020 calling attention to a writer that too few people know about: John Edgar Wideman, an important voice from the Rust Belt whose works are keenly relevant in the year of George Floyd. Here's what happened when I read two of his books.
