"A 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 explode?

By Langston Hughes


I'm done answering all aspects of this poem but just stuck on these two questions. I only need to know the structure of this poem and the point of view of this poem?

Thank you!

Point of view is referring to whoever is speaking. Once you determine who the speaker is (as separate from the poet), you should be able to define the POV.
