This man mentioned the suicide of Josiah Hawley in two works, one which ends with the image of a "small-mouth bass…gorged with spawn" and one which ends with the line "This is the Black Widow, death." Those poems, based on the writings of Jonathan Edwards, are "After the Surprising Conversions" and "Mr. Edwards and the Spider." In a third poem he sees one of the title animals rummaging through garbage, and in a fourth poem that ends "a savage servility / slides by on grease." he claims that "William James could almost hear the bronze Negroes breathe" at the dedication of St. Gaudens' monument to Colonel Shaw. For 10 points, name this author of "Skunk Hour" and "For the Union Dead."
