Harbor lights blink out of sync Piers start groaning, cities sink Salt on lips, rust in veins The shoreline moves… without a brain! Weather says “unusual tide” Maps look wrong, but numbers lie Waves don’t scream, they don’t complain They just arrive… again… again! RISE UP! The sea crawls in! OH NO! Here it comes again! No hate, no rage, no battle cry Just water learning how to climb Windows breathe, the streets go wet Slow apocalypse… polite and set! We joke it’s fine, we stay inside Film the flood, enjoy the ride Self-aware, feet still dry Until the stairs… say goodbye! RISE UP! Further in! OH NO! Let it win! It doesn’t ask, it doesn’t care Brings old ships into the square Anchors drag through bedroom walls Tides remember… what we forgot! Churches drown, the markets float Insurance sings a sinking note No god comes to part the sea Just gravity… and irony! RISE UP! Past the door! OH NO! Want some more! By the time we shout “retreat!” We’re ankle-deep in salted streets The monster smiles without a face It’s just the ocean… taking space! Final shot, the lesson’s plain No claws, no teeth, no evil brain The sea didn’t hate, didn’t plot, didn’t scheme We warmed it up… now it’s reclaiming the scene! RISE UP! The sea crawls in! OH NO! We let it in! End of land, beginning blue The sea came back… like we knew!
