what happens) to the speaker(s) of the poem we real cool?
die soon
the poem also covers the topic of mortality. in the last line it states that the seven pool players and narrator will "die soon", although the seven young pool players are prideful in their rebellion, they will eventually face mortality. this could also be an indicator into the time period with which the poem was written during the 1960s. racial tensions were at a height during the decade with civil rights leaders pushing for de-segregation in the south. the mortality that brooks addresses could be an indicator of the times that it was written in along with the fast life that the boys live in their enjoyment of skipping school, singing sin and drinking gin.
