Review Of The Poem 'We Real Cool'

The poem Rebirth of Slick problematizes the universal belief of success in a way that it is not only achieved by an individual, but rather a larger group of people. They protect their legacy to preserve their interests, pursue their dreams, and to continuously develop existing ideas that will broaden their influence. According to the urban dictionary, the meaning of “rebirth of slick” is “the sudden epitome of rap and hip-hop. The most original and realization of what goes down in the "hood" or lower class urban environments. Also, shows how those who live in these places do not seem to care of what happens around them and just live their life a cool, peace, groove smooth, jive, and roll”. On the other hand, the rebirth of slick is also a song composed by a hip-hop trio, Digable Planets.

We real cool When I first read “We Real Cool” I pictured a group of “cool kids,” a band of misfits playing hooky and skipping class. In line three when Brooks says “Lurk late,” I imagined the kids loitering out around the town late at night, stirring up trouble, singing songs with profanity or vulgar imagery drinking gin watered down with tonic or juice. “Jazz June” sounds like a promotion for a jazz club that the kids would go to on a late June night when school is on break. Then, after all the fun, some of them young by drunk driving or violence or drugs or whatever unfortunate fate falls upon them.

The poem “We Real Cool” is a very powerful poem, although expressed with very few words. To me, this poem describes the bottom line of the well known “ghetto life”. It describes the desperate and what they need, other than the usual what they want, money. Without actually telling us all about the seven young men, it does tell us about them. The poem tells of the men’s fears, their ambitions, and who they think they are, versus who they really are.

"We Real Cool" is a short, yet powerful poem by Gwendolyn Brooks that sends a life learning message to its reader. The message Brooks is trying to send is that dropping out of school and roaming the streets is in fact not "cool" but in actuality a dead end street.

Although there are a number of different facets regarding the careers and works of Gwendolyn Brooks and Robert Frost, there are a number of similarities between their respective poems "We Real Cool" and "Nothing Gold Can Stay". These similarities become all the more apparent when one attempts to compare the imagery of these poems. A careful consideration of this comparison indicates that the imagery of each of these poems is preoccupied with the concept of time in various aspects of its ephemeral nature, which ultimately reveals itself in a common theme of the untimely transition of youth to a state of death.

Hot chicken, hot anything is not cool. Personally, to me, I would never just visit Nashville, Tennessee for some wrongly seasoned meat, maybe I’m cockamamie. But if I were to go along on this silly trip, I can think of a few people I would bring. First, I would bring my mother, Keri, just hearing her reaction to such a place would be priceless. Second, I would bring my boyfriend, Tobias, he is always telling me how he enjoys hot and spicy foods. Honestly, I would just order it without telling him what it is, and sit back and enjoy the show. So, road trip it is.

“We real cool” penned by Gwendolyn Brooks is an excellent creation that describes the nature of youths in their young life. The poem is written in a very simple manner, which gives us a clear picture of the youth’s considering themselves as a real cool and involving in a fun as well as risky activities. The poem is the perfect example of what can be accomplished in a very short space with a simple everyday language using only few well-placed words. The simplicity of the language gives us the feeling that it is a real time creation of an author when she was having fun with friends, drinking gin, staying out late at night, enjoying jazz and so on. Also the simplicity of language points the fun, excitement, and carefree moments with no burden

Also, the author revealing his vulnerabilities, which are his insecurities about his height and looks, adds to the voice because it gives the reader both sides of his personality (both sides of the story). It states,“In order to keep the focus off of me and my unusual height, I went along with the crowd who would play practical jokes on other kids at school.” Revealing and accepting his vulnerability also helps define the theme of the story. Furthermore, the author is proud (tone) of overcoming his mistakes. At the end, it states, “Be a leader, Shaq, not a follower.

The poem 'We Real Cool' by Gwendolyn Brooks is a stream of the thoughts of poor inner city African-Americans who have adopted a hoodlum lifestyle. Though many can have different interpretations of this poem, it is fair to look at the life and career or the works and influences of Gwendolyn Brooks.

Money, power, drugs, just a few factors author bell hooks used to go in more depth of the deteriorating psychology of the young black man in America in her book “We Real Cool”. hooks began her own personal study because of the current mindset that the average young black man in America has. She began to notice that black men started to lose what she would like to call “Cool”. hooks describes “Cool” as such, “Black male cool was defined by the ability to withstand the heat and remain centered. It was defined by black male willingness to confront reality, to face the truth, and bear it not by adopting a false pose of cool while feeding on fantasy; not by black male denial or by assuming a “poor me” victim identity. It was defined by individual black males daring to self-define

“We Real Cool” is a poem that was written by poet Gwendolyn Brooks in the year of 1959. This poem states that the black young people in the United States went through to make a clear definition of themselves and tried to seek their values in the late fifties and early sixties, young kids knowing they are different from the society, so they started their abandonment from a young age, they give up school because they know they cannot be accept as other white kids, they were caught in things as rape, murder and robbery because that's the only thing the now to express their anger. They do everything that seems fun to them then die young because they have no hope left for them. These African American young ones are living in

As the Donald said, "Some 400 lb blogger sitting on his bed, could find this

In 1959 Dr. Seuss states “Today you are you, that is truer than true.There is no one alive whos youer than you” in Happy Birthday to You!(Happy Birthday to You!"). This implies that you should be you should. Inferring from Dr. Seuss stating “You are you, thats is truer than true”. With you meaning myself and true meaning accurate further supporting the claim that I am who I say I am. Furthermore it is implied that you should own who you are and no one can take it from you. This is shown when Dr. Suess states “ There is no one alive whos youer than you.” This exemplifies that I should own who I am because know one can take it away from me because know one else is me. This quote correlates with the modern saying “Just do you”. They both give you a sense of pride in yourself because they are stating that you should own who you are because you are the only you there is and there will ever be only one you.

You know what I hate more than spiders. when people don't respect others on the bus. Like stop being loud, stop repeating the same thing, stop asking for food, stop disrespecting others, and stop bouncing around like a basketball. If you did or do one of these things keep reading. Even if you didn't just listen.
