Poetry- Langston Hughes Bad Morning Here I sit With my shoes mismated. Lawdy-mercy! I’s frustrated

Hope Sometimes when I’m lonely, Don’t know why, Keep thinkin’ I won’t be lonely By and by.

Luck Sometimes a crumb falls From the tables of joy, Sometimes a bone Is flung. To some people Love is given, To others Only heaven.

American Heartbreak I am the American heartbreak Rock on which Freedom Stumps its toe- The great mistake That Jamestown Made long ago.

Still Here I’ve been scarred and battered. My hopes the wind done scattered. Snow has friz me, sun has baked me. Looks like between ‘em They done tried to make me Stop laughin’, stop lovin’, stop livin’- But I don’t care! I’m still here!

Final curve When you turn the corner And you run into yourself Then you know that you have turned All the corners that are left

Wake Tell all my mourners To mourn in red- Cause there ain’t no sense In my bein’dead

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 just explode?
