Discourse Idea

I don’t know if my thoughts about my discourse is a good idea, and I would like for my fellow peer’s to give me their thoughts. I have decided to do my discourse on Motherhood, I am not sure if I will narrow it down to Single motherhood, but motherhood non the less, I want to center my discourse on Langston Hughes poem “A Dream Deferred” for those who have never read the poem here it is, after reading it you will see where I want to go with my discourse. Please comment.

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 sugur over—

Like syrup sweet?

Maybe it just sags

Like a heavy load.

Or does it explode?

Prelimary Research Paper

I have choosen to do my discourse on Motherhood, I have not yet decided if I am going to narrow it down to Single motherhood. In my discourse I will try to demonstrate the affects that motherhood has on one’s life. I will use books that discuse choosing motherhood. I will also look at texts that focus around Pregnancy and dating. If I choose to narrow it down I will focus on texts, articles and journals that show challenges and the positive aspects of Single motherhood. Although I will use books, I would like to have my primary source be Langston Hughes Poem “A Dream Deferred.” This topic relates to me as a new mother and as a single mother, I can reflect on the dream deferred, the dispointment from other’s, the the choice, the acceptance, the waiting, the pain, the exitement, weight on my shoulder, but utimaley the joy.
