AUTOBIOGRAPY IN 5 CHAPTERS

 

 

 

Chapter I

 

I walk down the street.

There is a deep hole in the sidewalk.

I fall in.

I am lost...I am helpless.

It isn't my fault.

It takes forever to find a way out.

 

 

Chapter II

 

I walk down the same street.

There is a deep hole in the sidewalk.

I pretend I don't see it.

I fall in again.

I can't believe I am in the same place.

But, it isn't my fault.

It still takes a long time to get out.

 

 

Chapter III

 

I walk down the same street.

There is a deep hole in the sidewalk.

I see it is there.

I still fall in...it's a habit...but,

my eyes are open.

I know where I am.

It is my fault.

I get out immediately.

 

 

Chapter IV

 

I walk down the same street.

There is a deep hole in the sidewalk.

I walk around it.

 

 

Chapter V

 

I walk down another street.
