          The poem We Real Cool and The Outsiders both have a good connection to each other in many ways such as characters and other similarities.

The quote in the poem that proves this connection is stated in line 1 - 2 and states the following “We left school”. This quote shows that people from the poem have dropped out of school just like some of the people from the Outsiders. Another connection between both of these is how both of these also have people that go out (late) at night such as Ponyboy when he was going back home from the movie theater. A quote from the poem that proves the connection between these is stated in line 2 - 3 and states the following “We Lurk late”. This quote proves that both the poem and the book have a connection. To sum it up, both the poem We Real Cool and the book The Outsiders have a connection in the characters and other similarities.
