 read "We Real Cool" (Links to an external site.)
Â
Â
 by Gwendolyn Brooks. Then answer the following questions as completely as possible.Â
Â
2. What does it mean to "[s]trike straight"? To "[t]hin gin"? To "[j]azz June"? How do these phrases help characterize the speaker(s)?
Â
3. Are the speaker's idea of what is "cool" and the poet's idea of what is "cool" the same? (Are the poet's perspective and the speaker's perspective the same?) Does Gwendolyn Brooks's discussion of what she was doing in that poem confirm your impression, or is it surprising in some way?
Â
4. Please also quote and discuss a significant line or two from this poem.
