Revised version
Some kids from class said they'd seen faces in the water.
Nobody took them seriously til the flooding came.
Worst in years, the BBC said.
They didn't talk about the faces we saw.
Cut it out of the interview clips.
Hid the danger from the public but nobody is safe now.
The hands came next.
Cold and slimy, grasping at everything near the water.
Grasping at everyone.
I reckon half of the people the "floods" claimed were dragged away by the hands.
I'm not sure what was worse.
At least the faces stayed under the water, smiling and laughing.
Finally we saw them whole.
