        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.

        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.

        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.

        I walk down the same street.
        There is a deep hole in the sidewalk.
        I walk around it.
        5.
        I walk down another street.
