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?

There are some things we should not screw with... Bob Dylan, Raisin Bran Cereal, Hong Kong Action Cinema and Langston Hughes.... they are all perfect exactly the way they are.

shame on you
