What is the overall tone of lines 8-10 in your opinion?
By: Langston Hughes
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?
