Someone is honking nearby.  The sound is continuous: HOOOOOONK...
I wish they would stop.  I have a headache.  My arm hurts.
Why am I upside-down?
There is a steering-wheel against my belly.
I am in a car.  It is my car that is honking!
Did I crash?
I can't move my arm.  Why?
It is dark.  I smell mud, and rain, and wood.
Surely this is just a bad dream.  I will wake up any minute now.  I am sure of it.
Dimly, I remember:
    A van.
    Honking.
      Braking
         swerving
            darkness
Is this real?  It cannot be real.  I just had my brakes checked!  I am a good driver!  I cannot have crashed.  It is a dream.
I am not waking up...
...what if it is real?
Oh my god
   I'm trapped
      I crashed
         I'm alone
            my arm is trapped
I flail for my cell phone.  I must call 9-1-1!
I cannot get it off my belt!
   It hurts to try
Nobody knows
   where I am
nobody knows
   I crashed
nobody knows
   I need help
I cannot see anything.
   I am trapped
      I am alone


                                       (what if no one comes?)
