The title was changed to simplify and clarify the time of day it refers to. For this poem‚ I decided to use tercets (and couplets‚ in a way) to give the poem a quirky meter which made it more fun and entertaining to read. The first two lines of every stanza were focused on external observations‚ and the last line of every stanza was an italicized‚ internal

    Jason English 2070 “Lying in a Hammock…” Analysis This poem is really cool. I like it a lot. From the title all the way until the second to last line of the poem‚ one may think that this piece is a simplistically vivid description of a man and his farm. With such beautiful imagery‚ the reader anticipates an enjoyable conclusion; however‚ they are treated to a harsh wake-up call in the last line.

    Here is an anti bullying poem written by Jon Evans: Identity–The Bully They all try to look the same
all try to give themselves a name
