What elements of the structure of “We Real Cool” did Heaney reproduce inhis parody?

What will be an ideal response?



  • Most of them: the use of the poem’s first line as the title; a subtitle identifying the speakers and their preferred hangout; short riming couplets; the ending of each line but the last with the “We” that begins each new statement; concluding with the word “soon.” The only element Heaney does not reproduce is the extreme compression of the original; he needs a few more words than Brooks used to make his points.
