Explanation:

Without seeing the actual poem "Harlem", we can only go by the definitions. Free - verse has no consistent rhyme scheme. Iambic pentameter has a specific syllable - count and can be rhymed or unrhymed. Blank verse is unrhymed iambic pentameter. Couplets are two consecutive rhyming lines. Since no information about the poem's rhyme, syllable - count etc. is given, if it has no consistent rhyme scheme, it is free verse.

Answer:

A. free verse
