Poem Reflection of we real cool

Do you think you are cool? If you think you are cool you will love this poem that I read. This poem is “We Real Cool” written by Gwendolyn Brooks. This poem have three things I like about. They are structure, title, and the message of the poem.

The first reason is the structure. Short poems to me are more understanding to me. They are more informing to the reader. It will also want the reader to read it because it short and won’t take up your time.

Another reason I like this poem because of the title. The title shows what the poem is going to be about. The title “We Real Cool”, is more informing to the reader and me because it goes straight to the point.

Lastly I like this poem because of the message it tells to the reader. The message of this poem tells the reader or me don’t skip school. It also tells the reader to not drop of school because in the poem the person drop of school because they thought they were cool so they drop out of school and didn’t get their education. In real life you don’t want to do that because you’ll be a homeless person on the street.

When it really comes down to this Gwendolyn Brooks shows us not to leave school because you’ll be a homeless person the street.
