A Dream Deferred
What happens to a dream deferred?
Does it dry up
like a raisin in the sun?
Or fester like a sore--
And then run?
Does it stink like rotten meat?
Or crust and sugar over--
like a syrupy sweet?
Maybe it just sags
like a heavy load.
Or does it explode?
P.S. A pause for the cause...do you have any dreams deferred? Today is a new day, what are you gonna do with it? Me, I'm going to the Peace Corps...a dream no longer deferred!
