Vocabulary words from Langston Hughes' poetry

Also in Langston's Hughes more popular poem "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?
