In Gwendolyn Brooks We Real Cool, the poet put the word “We” at the end of almost every line. The lines themselves are enjambed: there is no punctuation to indicate a pause or a stop at the end of the lines until the last line of the poem. Usually poems with enjambed lines are read using punctuation as a guide, but Brooks said she intended there to be a pause at the end of every line. Discuss the difference if the poem is read following the rules of punctuation or read as Brooks and Morgan Freemen do with pauses at the end of every line (after the word We.) How does the difference affect the tone and interpretation of the poem? What is the effect of the omission of We from the last line of the poem (Die soon.)?
