The African American Dream has been deferred in the poem "Deferred" along with the consequences of procrastinate them, thus the poem was made to help people live the lives they dream of having.
Langston Hughes was a black man during a time period in which African-Americans were considered an inferior group of people, and as a result dreams and goals would have been difficult to realize.
His "Dream Deferred" constitutes a man's expression of his dreams at that tough time.
But a caged bird stands on the grave of dreams
his shadow shouts on a nightmare scream
his wings are clipped and his feet are tied
so he opens his throat to sing
Paraphrased:
A caged bird's dreams are dead, killed by its captivity. It is tied down and restricted and so cannot do much else. It shouts a maniacal scream (for help? in anguish?). Since it is physically limited, all it can do is use its voice to sing.
