Plastic Attack

He attacks with toy solidiers
When I'm not looking...

He pays close attention to the forms
Of Battle.

His radio man hidden behind the remote
His grenade launcher perched for
The best approach.

From the back of the couch snipers flank me-

He Blows Me Up.

The simplicity of this is what makes it great. It was well written and cute. I really enjoyed reading it. Nice work. =)

i like this because it is clever; childish and sinister simultaneously.

Now that is something else. A throw-back to the toy soldiers days, the 'army guys' with grandma. Good memories.
