Deferred

by langston hughes (excerpt)

maybe now i can have that white enamel stove
i dreamed about when we first fell in love
eighteen years ago.
but you know,
rooming and everything
then kids,
cold-water flat and all that.
but now my daughter’s married
and my boy's most grown—
quit school to work--
and where we're moving
there ain't no stove—
maybe i can buy that white enamel stove!

me, i always did want to study french.
it don't make sense—
i'll never go to france,
but night schools teach french.
now at last i've got a job
where i get off at five,
in time to wash and dress,
so si'l-vous plait, i'll study french!

someday,
i'm gonna buy two new suits
at once!

all i want is
one more bottle of gin.

what has been deferred in the poem "deferred" by langston hughes?

the civil rights movement
the abolitionist movement
