    Children Who Were Rough," by Stephen Spender, and another poem "We Real Cool," by Gwendolyn Brooks share many similarities and differences. These three pieces of literature talk about racism and rough children. "Those Who Don't" is about racism and how people think about others without getting to know them. "My Parents Kept Me from Children Who Were Rough" explains how a good child wants to be like other children who are bad. "We Real Cool" talks about pool players who are bad. These pieces of literature

    We Real Cool, by Gwendolyn Brooks speaks through the voice of a young clique who believes it is “real cool.” Using slang and simple language to depict the teenage voice in first person, Brooks’s narrators explain that they left school to stay out together late at night, hanging around pool halls, drinking, causing trouble, and meeting girls.

Moore and D.W. Moore, 1990). Therefore, the poem, “We Real Cool” is about more than just pool players. For instance, when the author

Both the analytical essay What It’s Like To Be A Gang Member and the poem We Real Cool portray the life of a participant as short and fatal. This demonstrates that its life is very violent and scary.
