An Ode to Brother Langston - 1/21/10 (from 1/5/10)

"A dream deferred will only dry up like a raisin in the sun if the backburner is what it stays on...it will only fester like an old sore if you care about it less tomorrow than the day before...it will only stink like rotten meat if it is forced to accept defeat...it will only crust over like a syrupy sweet if left incomplete...it will only sag if left hanging like a dirty rag...it will only explode it you allow it to become a rued opportunity down the road."

-A. Lewis
