We real cool

We Real Cool

I like this poem because it is not like any other pome. I think we real cool is about kids skipping school. “We real cool” I think that it means I'm skipping school and that makes me cool. “We left school” they left school. “Lurk late” they stay at places late into the night. “We strike straight” they stay out late a lot. “We sing sin” the curse a lot. “We thin gin” they drink alcohol. “We jazz June” they listen to jazz. “We die soon” live fast die soon.
