Autobiography in Seven Short Chapters
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.
Two
I walk down the 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.
Three
I walk down the 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.
Four
I walk down the same street. There is a deep hole in the sidewalk. I jump in...it's an escape. I know where I am. I did jump in! It is my fault. I get out willingly.
Five
I walk down the same street. There is a deep hole in the sidewalk. I jump in...I can change it. I know where I am. I can't change it. It is my fault. I get out knowingly.
Six
I walk down the same street. There is a deep hole in the sidewalk. I walk around it.
