D

Explanation

In “Harlem,” the image of a dream sagging “like a heavy load” lets readers picture something drooping under weight. In “The Weary Blues,” the musician’s “lazy sway” also creates a visible image of his movement. Both lines use details that appeal to the sense of sight, so the best choice is that both provide details using sight.
