The poem that I chose was the pool players. Seven at the Golden shovel. This poem uses a lot of slang words that are repeated such as we. I think that the writer uses these words to make the reader in the audience know that teenagers are  immature.  This poem was to attract younger people  and a younger audience that can relate. For example in the Powm when it says we real cool. Like a slang word or frase that younge people use. The writer used alliteration when they said lurk late and strike straight. The two l’s and s’s to make a sound that is attractive to say. This poem almost shows how teenagers approach adulthood and their daily lifestyles. Another point where alliteration was used was what the writer says Jazz June. I think this means like summer break or when teenagers get out of college or school for the summer months. After that thy say and we die soon. This means their teenage years are going to die off and they live their lives in the moment basically like young and dumb and experimenting.
