WHAT HAPPENS TO A DREAM DEFERRED? - LANGSTON HUGHES

WHAT HAPPENS TO A DREAM DEFERRED?

DOES IT DRY UP,

LIKE THE RAISIN IN THE SUN?

OR FESTER LIKE A SORE -

AND THEN RUIN?

DOES IT STINK LIKE ROTTEN MEAT?

OR CRUST AND SUGAR OVER -

LIKE A SYRUPY SWEET?

MAY BE IT JUST SAGS

LIKE A HEAVY LOAD

OR DOES IT EXPLODE?
