Dream Deferred

A dream deferred is a dream lost
Into the oblivions of its host;
It's like a flash of lightening,ultrafast
Strong enough to break into your bone
But roars in vain,until long after 'tis gone;
It's like a rotten egg,giving no chicken
Nor a delicious meal at breakfast
But only distracting the link
Betwixt your future and your past.
