I read this beautiful poem in a youtube comment section once. I could never find it anywhere online afterwards. Its like theres no trace of it
August
by Esta Spalding
I read the journal of a boy who
starved to death on the other side
of a river,
under trees grown so old he would
not feed them to a signal fire.
His last entry,
August 12:
Beautiful Blueberries! Still there were
days I know your mouth gave
that last taste of blue.
