    better. Pondering the future is not an unusual characteristic to have. It is natural to try to figure out what will happen to someone and why. This allows one to consider the realisticness of a dream and what will happen if it isn’t achieved. In Langston Hughes’ poem “Harlem”‚ the speaker wonders about his “deferred dreams”.
