Which of the lines from "Harlem” uses a metaphor, rather than a simile, to describe a dream deferred?

Or fester like a sore—
Does it stink like rotten meat?
like a syrupy sweet?
Or does it explode?

Respuesta :

Answer:

The line "Or does it explode" uses a metaphor

Explanation:

Answer:

The line or does it explode is right!

The other answer has it on point! I think it is right above me! :)
