Everybody's Autobiography

 

Chapter One

I walk down the street.
There is a deep hole in the sidewalk.
I fall in.
I am lost.....I am hopeless.
It isn't my fault.
It takes forever to find a way out.

 

Chapter Two

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'm in the same place.
But it's not my fault.

 

Chapter Three

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.
My eyes are open.
I know where I am.
It is my fault.
I get out immediately.

 

Chapter Four

I walk down the same street.
There is a deep hole in the sidewalk.
I walk around it.

 

Chapter Five

I walk down another street.

 

Chapter Six

I walk down the same street.
There is a deep hole in the pavement.
I pretend I don't see it.....
