Harlem
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?
Write any examples of similie and metaphor you see.

Respuesta :

Simile (comparison using like or as -
“does it dry up like a raisin in the sun”
“fester like a sore”
“does it stink like a rotten meat?”
“crust and sugar over like a syrupy sweet”
“sags like a heavy load”

Metaphors are comparisons not using like or as. There are none in this excerpt
