## Hello Steemit! This is my entry for [The Writers’ Block Poetry Contest: Week 2](https://steemit.com/poetry/@thewritersblock/the-writers-block-poetry-contest-1-results)

### WRITING PROMPT: Write a poem inspired by James Wright’s poem [“Lying in a Hammock at William Duffy’s Farm in Pine Island, Minnesota”.](https://www.poetryfoundation.org/poems/47734/lying-in-a-hammock-at-william-duffys-farm-in-pine-island-minnesota)

This is my first submission to one of these contests and it seemed befitting since I was *in* my very own living room hammock writing it. 

When it's cold in Colorado, it's so nice to be able to relax in my **Eno Deluxe Double Nest** and still be able to stay warm, while I'm in my "thinks-zone."

I wanted to say thank you to [@thewritersblock](http://steemit.com/@thewritersblock), [@gmuxx](http://steemit.com/@gmuxx) and [@anomadsoul](http://steemit.com/@anomadsoul) for hosting this contest and getting me inspired to share some of my personal expression!

Ta-da...

And now, my poem.

### Suspension (Hammock-style)

Suspended in time
On a cold day where star crossed lovers 
Eclipse under a blood blue super moon
In a chorus of light flickers
Embers ignite under pressure
Of stubborn lungs whose trapped air explodes
Lightly swinging, aware of what only Atlas knows.

***Jakob A. Martinez***
