Autobiography in Five Short Chapters
by Portia Nelson

Chapter 1
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 2
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 3
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 4
I walk down the Same street
There is a Deep hole in the sidewalk
I Walk Around It

Chapter 5
I walk Down another street.
