I was expecting that this book contains poems about a father and daughter relationship, but I think I was mislead because of the title. This poetry book by William Evans recounts his experiences growing up as a Black American, thus racism and oppression is the theme of some of the verses. The poems are a mix of different emotions such as strong indignation and hurt, albeit there are a few poems in the end that tells about his love for his family.

**Warning: this text may contain spoilers** So glad I read this poetry collection! The poems are personal; they’re about William Evans’s experiences as a black man in America. (He’s from Ohio.) He’s also reflecting on what it means to be a black girl and a black woman given pressures on black men to perform masculinity. (That’s my way of putting it; his language is much more concrete.) He’s paying attention specifically to black experience. As a woman who isn’t black, I nonetheless related to his thoughts on how women get treated. And I was glad to read all of his poems, though much of it was beyond my firsthand experience. The poems made me laugh, at times, and cry.
The first poem, “Dust,” is a wow poem. Other favorites I dog-eared to reread were “It’s Tuesday and We Didn’t See Any New Shootings of Black People by Police Today so It’s Possible We Are F**king Tonight, Maybe,” “New Year’s Eve Party at Eric’s House and the Black Boys Have Had Enough,” “Tonk,” and “Even Though I Love You More Than Anything, That Won’t Stop Them From Killing You.”
Evans is a fan of superhero comics, and some poems mention heroes like The Green Lantern and The Flash. "Grey / Gray” is a great poem about body, weight, loss, and gain. My favorite poem was probably “My Wife Is Shaped Like.” Evans performs the poem on YouTube, and I recommend looking that up, too. So good.
Bonus quotes from STILL CAN’T DO MY DAUGHTER’S HAIR, by William Evans…
“My daughter plays among the ruins. I am a playground of dead bark.”
“I was once sapling, that she flourishes in the splinters of me.”
“This is what you do when you are Black and at jobs where you suffer through being the minority, you send your daughter to the better school where she will suffer through being the minority.”
“See the community we’re building? See how we have tamed the wild dogs, I bet you haven’t heard one bark since you got here. We can’t guarantee they won’t get hungry if you leave.”
“The four-year-old gives her first protest of the morning whether warranted or the default position of her mother’s legacy. Her fist is balled the way a boy would grip her hair in a kindergarten class or at any age that boys put their name on things.”
“I say girl not to be cute, but because I honestly don’t remember her name. But I do remember no one ever threatening to lock me in a closet for fear that I might be too loose of a star to stay lodged in the night sky. Only thing anyone ever told me was don’t let no girl trap you, which might have meant that the girls were teeth, only there to bleed me and I should try to make it back home with nothing attached to me…”
“Guess I didn’t know she might stop being someone’s daughter after she got my scent on her. Guess I don’t have enough shadow in me to blanket my daughter in the shame of her own experience…”
“we were supposed to dissect frogs, but the shipment of dead and preserved bodies didn’t arrive on time, so I guess I, being the slender black boy, had to do. The white girls giggled until the reaction bubbled over the glass lip and one of them asked me what size shoe I wear… they had already pinned my arms and legs down to the tray and begun to peel back my chest ‘til the lungs and heart and liver turned brown from the exposure to air, no one wondering what pond I came from, how I was ever caught or if my wide and blinking eyes were as big as everything else on me.”
“give me death or give me death where my mama doesn’t have to appear on cnn.”
“Prayer works if god hears that you used the father’s tone.”
“I held my weathered and woven basket, the splintered fangs invading my palms.”
“What happens to a man when both his legacy and memory is placed in a garden that will never bear fruit. What to do with all these tree limbs.”
“My father once told me the only thing he liked about the city more than the country is that they will find your remains quicker.”
“my wife is patient. Still loves the world more than my past allows me to…”
“the girl, who can only be my brightly stitched heart, who shrugs at death...”

despite the title, this poetry collection is largely (with the exception of maybe four or five poems) about william evans’ sense of mortality as a black man in america. that thematic through line is powerful, even poignant in places, and slightly redundant in others.
regardless, i was surprised by how much i enjoyed the collection, given that evans’ style tends towards the very contained and very narrative poem. he’s produced some devastating (and tender) beauty here:

I'm such a huge fan of Button Poetry. When I saw William Evans' book was available, I was so excited. His poetry is raw, full of love and hurt and anger and memories. Full of so much emotion, enough to place you in his mind and shoes. Enough to give you goosebumps everywhere and make your eyes well up. I love his poetry.

While the title makes you think this book revolves around Evans' daughter, it really focuses more on growing up and being black in America. Evans looks at what young black men deal with as well what fathers go through. You can feel his pain, his anger, and his sense of disenfranchisement.
Evans joins many other spoken word poets in publishing a book. I've been a fan of Button Poetry for a while now and am glad they are getting these out into the world.

I am tempted to psycho-analyze the title of the book and the poems within but a piece of me is telling me to keep still "ain't nobody got time for that!" so, I'll delve right into my two-cents!
Short version: Surviving in America.
Long version: A collection of experiences, emotions, memories and hopes of a young black man growing up in America with glimpses into his family, the generations before him and the male influences in his life as vividly depicted in Inheritance.
The poems depict different struggles and in each you are bound to hear not one voice but many voices that echo the message therein. In Call the Gospel by its name, and I say cathedral when I mean gunpowder you feel the rage, loss, and confusion. If I were to sit back and listen to everything that's been happening in America and to forget all that the media houses have been sharing with the world, I'd come back to these two poems. I believe my clarity lies there and my empathy resides in ...to see him lowered into the world that tries to claim me each and every day.
Then there is My wife is shaped like which I loved.
I've never read any of the author's works and this was my first time being ushered into his world courtesy of Button Poetry Books and NetGalley and I see myself perching right here.

2 The title is misleading *sigh* Stars
Disclaimer: Copy provided by NetGalley and the publisher in exchange for an honest review.
Because I feel the title is misleading, let me tell you what this book is really about. We follow the life of a black man living in the United States. I feel I would have enjoyed much more this book if I had enter knowing this. Although we get some mentions of his daughter, it was barely 10% of the book. Having said that, if we focus only on the content, I feel it has a lot of value, especially the way he talks about fear, sadness, loss, unfairness, etc. Yet I came into it already expecting something, making me feel disconnected and always having to wait for the appearance of his daughter. I did enjoy the last 20% of the book more than anything. But I was just not enjoying it.
Favorite Poems:
-My wife is shaped like
-On the night that Cleveland Cavaliers win the NBA championship, my father's phone goes to straight to voicemail
-Still can't do my daughter's hair
-GIGI

It's rare I read a book that makes me long for so much more. Usually I enjoyed it, thought it told a good story, and we s good package. Rarely do I ever want more from that particular book (more from the world and characters... Yes).
This book finished too quickly. I tried to also things down but couldn't. I wanted more . Evans perspective in life is so well pronounced I didn't have to imagine anything.
I'm very much looking forward to any more by Williams Evans.

I really hate writing negative reviews but I did not like this poetry book and I looooove reading poetry. Most of the time I was questioning myself "what is this book" and "why am I wasting time reading this". Unfortunataly, this book is not my coup of tea but I am sure there are people out there that will love it.
November 26, 2017
Lured by the title but was kinda disappointed by the content....well not for long, because the content quickly distracted me from the story which was in the poetry. It was raw and full of emotion. Liked it but, I have this problem where I compare poetry to my favourite poets and see whether they are better and this one was good not better...hence the three stars.

I wasn’t impressed with this poetry collection. I only liked one poem in here and it was called My Wife Is Shaped Like.

I had originally been introduced to Evans' work through my Facebook feed after watching a video of him performing 'My Wife Is Shaped Like' (which is in this collection)— and man, that piece was moving.
That poem was a taste of what this entire book is about-- an exploration of family, of love, of fatherhood, of marriage but all with the hint of what those things mean as a Black man in America. There are moments of great humor, humility, and fun with his daughter that helps the reader ease into harsh realities by the end of each poem— but for the most part, Evans is blunt and honest about his experiences and about the thoughts that constantly run through his and his families’ heads because there’s no other way to discuss such heavy topics.
His words are as impactful on paper as they are when he speaks them live-- although I highly recommend you read each poem and then watch the live version for a double whammy. This was moving, illuminating, and emotional; all makes for an essential read. Especially in this political climate where it is important to read stories from one another, actively empathize with each others struggles, and empower one another, I'd genuinely recommend to any and everyone.

Reading this collection of poetry was such a profound experience for me. And while I was lured in by the title, assuming it would be more about the author’s daughter, I realized this collection was so much more.
Still Can't Do My Daughter's Hair illustrates thoughts and feelings of a black man in America, often illuminating fears and bitter memories that plague him. His words are beautiful, yet haunting in how they linger with you long after you’ve finished reading. Poems that start off as innocent childhood memories take detours down dark paths, as William Evans gives us a glimpse of a bleak reality full of slain bodies. In this sense, his words can be sobering. He gives life to feelings of hurt, anger, and grief that pull you out of your comfort zone and implore you to wake up and acknowledge his pain. I look forward to reading more from the author and would recommend this book to others.

Browsing Netgalley, I decided to head to the poetry section and get myself some fancy reading done.
I chose this one because the title is brilliant and after being absolutely blown away by the first poem, I preordered the book on Button Poetry.
I lack the skill to properly articulate the absolutely heartrending effect each piece elicits, but believe me when I say this - you'll be hard pressed finding better quality contemporary poetry about the male African American experience.
Seriously, DEVOUR THIS BOOK.

Picked this one up because I've been having emotions with regards to legacy and being a WOC (albeit non-black) and having children, and a number of the poems hit the spot of grappling with that idea of life and life blood and legacy. Don't quite know how to describe it to someone, but that's the feeling. This is definitely (as most poetry is, especially when coming from spoken word poets,) incredibly personal and an exploration of Evans' life and survival as a Black man in America, and so there are things that I can never relate to, but were still so important for me to read. Thank you, poet!
September 26, 2017
The poems in this collection strike me as personal, coming from the world of family, and then reflecting on the writer's coming of age. As an added bonus, I enjoyed the poet's hints of nerd culture. I too enjoy Teen Titans Go and Black Panther, which are among the references here.
Well worth the read, featuring a poet with a powerful voice, I would definitely recommend this book. There is a lot of life to appreciate in these verses

I wanted to read this right away because I haven't read many male modern poets and I'm glad I did. With this book, I went in with a wide open mind and found that these poems are written with personal feelings and passion.
My two favorite poems are 'My Wife is Shaped Like' and 'Still Can't Do My Daughter's Hair'. The real-life themes that fill this book make it a must-read. No matter who you are this poetry book will open your eyes in some way. My mind is already open, I'm a strong believer in always having an open mind and so I was surprised that this book somehow opened my mind even more.
Like every poetry book, I didn't enjoy every single poem but more of them I did. William's writing is straight to the point with a powerful wordplay. I look forward to seeing what William writes next.
(I was given this copy to review. This is 100% an honest review!)

This is easily one of the best poetry books out there, and possibly one of the best books, period. William Evans just has a way of getting to you in a way no other author ever has. Every poem hit me, and despite our different experiences, it felt as though he were picking out the deepest parts of me and articulating it into words I could not have found on my own. Thank you, Mr. Evans.

An excellent and highly readable collection of short poems. References to Akron where I spent some childhood years and his recollections align with mine - terse, cold, leavable. "Vaccine" simply splendid. "Catch and Release" beyond clever. A few insights into the segregation of cultures with some comical attempts at intersection (parties, schools) but these aren't angry efforts but rather realistic encounters. Recollections on his father show how far society may have come in gaining some trust.
One sign of a good book is to race out to find more from the same author. Away I go.

Loved this collection of poems. Strong yet vulnerable and honest.
October 28, 2019
Straight forward and while poetic and not "artsy fartsy." While I cannot relate to all the themes (I am not of color, or a parent) but I can appreciate them.
October 13, 2021
Stunning. Heart breaking. The way this man bends and works with words is just magic.
February 21, 2018
Powerful poetry that pins you down and makes you see the reality that is all around you, but that if you are not a person of color, you may be blind to. A glimpse behind the white-washed wall of mainstream reality.
February 1, 2018
Beautiful. Such a combination of the commonplace and sublime. Beautiful metaphor. Deep themes. And incredible composition of a book of poetry from the first poem to the last.
Moved and inspired.

I first met Evans a little more than a decade ago, and I was immediately struck by his ability to simultaneously project strength and vulnerability. This particular collection has been a long time coming, and Evans’ dedication to craft is clear in every poem. He commands the page as well as, or better than, the stage. Most reticent, for me, were the poems about Evans’ daughter and about his father. These poems were tender, honest, sometimes despairing. As a father, I cherish these poems. As an educator, I’m beyond excited to bring them into the classroom. No matter what kind of reader you are, these poems are sure to resonate.

Button Poetry continues to knock it out the park with their releases. Most (all?) of their authors are well-known spoken word poets. Even if you think poetry is really not your thing, please hop over to youtube, find Button Poetry, and dive in. You will not regret it. I am a giant fan and often peruse their video archives when I need a creative boost.
As with all spoken word poets, I suggest you go over to youtube and check out a poem or two of theirs before reading so you get a better understanding of their delivery and lyrical voice. You’ll enjoy reading this text more if you do.
Still Can't Do My Daughter's Hair by William Evans is another amazing publication from Button Poetry. Focused primarily of what it means to survive life in modern America as a black man, Evans dives in to his experiences and history without apology. It’s often hard to read in the best way possible, the weight and pain leave an impact, poem by poem, note by note. He doesn’t shy away from the ones that are hard to tell and doesn’t avoid the stories that may leave him not in the best light. He manages to brilliantly articulate major issues in the smallest nuanced ways at times. Raw and powerful.
My Wife Is Shaped Like has been one of my favorites by Evans since I first heard it. If you’re going to watch him deliver one poem in spoken form, this is a great place to start.

2,5/5 stars
I could never connect with these poems. I actually had such a hard timing reading them that I stopped and left it unfinished for weeks until now that I decided to finish it once and for all. It still felt like a chore more than something I enjoyed.
I feel a little dumb saying this, but I think I didn't fully understand a lot of the poems. They felt like random words put on paper sometimes. I guess William Evans's style is just not my cup of tea.

I wanted Evans to tell me about his relationship with his daughter. Of course, he does. But that's not enough. A couple of poems are not enough. He writes about his family, the kind of danger that always lurks around the corner, and how he adores his daughter. However, I wanted Evans to stay around the title. That he doesn't and I am disappointed. It's still a good read. Oh! That's a gorgeous cover.

Really good. I love narrative poetry that takes you so quickly to a feeling and place. It's a gift. I flew through this one and want to read it again soon. Devastating.
