Performance Review Coming Up!

Performance reviews
are essential tools for all
employees. Biden--

employee number
46--has not been per-
fect, but has not per-

verted the office
or perturbed the role of the
government, which must

take action when things
fall apart. His performance
is persistently

pursuing progress
not perfection. New goals will
answer new crises

and he will persist,
quietly doing the work
others will neglect.

*****

For the first 100 days of the Biden administration, this website will feature a new poem of What’s Next!? These pieces can be calls to action, calls to attention, or calls to anger. They will light the way and guide the fight. They will get us moving and keep our momentum. They will be filled with hope, with anger, with sorrow. They will get us into good trouble and point out the trouble we need to stop. They will be polished gems, or rough-cut drafts of rage, or in-process pieces searching for peace. They may be haiku or tanka, limericks or lyrics, verses free or fettered.

#100Days100Poems of What’s Next!? wants your poems, your prose, your visual art (photos, drawings, sculptures), your music, your short films and animations. Interpret the theme as broadly as you’d like.
