Harlem [dream Deferred] Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: A BCDCEFE GH H

What happens to a dream deferredA
-
Does it dry upB
like a raisin in the sunC
Or fester like a soreD
And then runC
Does it stink like rotten meatE
Or crust and sugar overF
like a syrupy sweetE
-
Maybe it just sagsG
like a heavy loadH
-
Or does it explodeH

Langston Hughes
