Tight helmet on my head,
Sand on my face, in my shirt,
Muscles in need of stretching,
Try.
Can't feel my legs or arms,

Sharp feeling in my back,
Squirm around,
Squish.
Wet feeling on my back,
Nice.

Wait, wait, wait,
Start to feel my limbs,
Start to see my surroundings,
Start to move, start to mumble.
Bang. Ow.
Shout.

See a giant castle,
A horse,
An unconscious man.
Distant shouts.
I see a giant hand coming towards me...

These are the thoughts,
Of my favourite toy soldier,
Playing in the sand pit,
With me.
