I think I tracked down the source on Threads, but I’m insanely skeptical here too. First of all, the idea that a second-grader wrote this is implausible at best. Second, the source of the anecdote is “trust me, bro, this teacher I know told me this happened”. It’s even claimed that the student is dyslexic, which doesn’t preclude excellent performance in writing but does hamper it substantially at this age (let alone at this ridiculous level for a second-grader). Finally, the nail in the coffin: this post is advertising how their own book published last year selling for $19 managed to inspire this otherwise writing-phobic student to open up and create this poem. So we have: “Trust me, bro, this ridiculous scenario totally happened, and it happened because of this book; this person I’m not making up told me so. If a dyslexic, writing-phobic second-grader can write this thanks to my book, you too can write poetry for just $19.”

@BonesOfTheMoon@lemmy.world, I feel bad for saying it, but I think this is probably a hoax made up for money, to be honest.
