Thesis: Harlem

In "Harlem" (A.K.A. "A Dream Deferred") by Langston Hughes, he emphasizes on what happens to a dream when it is put on hold in which one should not delay his/her dreams because the more one postpone his/her dreams, the more the dreams will transform into something very different than it once was.

How about:

In “Harlem,” a short poem by Langston Hughes, emphasis is placed on dreams. Hughes is showing that dreams should be captured at once so that they do not transform into something other than what they originally were.

You might be giving away a little too much in your thesis. You would have to write an entire essay on a poem that is very short so you might want to give away as few details as possible so that you can save them for the body paragraphs.

Your thesis is very well thought out and it looks like it would be interesting to write a paper on ones dreams and aspirations.
