Autobiography in Five Short Chapters




উৎসঃ ইন্টারনেট 


Chapter One
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 Two
I walk down the street.
There is a deep hole in the sidewalk.
I pretend that I don't see it. 
I fall in again. 
I can't believe I am in this same place.
But, it isn't my fault. 
It still takes a long time to get out. 

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 ... but, 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.

    1. আমিও। কারণ আমি নিশ্চিত নতুন রাস্তাতেই ঠিক একই ঘটনার পুনরাবৃত্তি হবে। কাজেই পুরোনো রাস্তাতেই দেখেশুনে হাঁটা বুদ্ধিমানের কাজ।

  5. ishh darun sab jinis miss hoe gache!...here's another point of view:

    I walk down the same street.
    There is a deep hole in the sidewalk.
    I see it is there.
    I try to fill it, but it's too big.
    I put a signboard there and walk around it.
    :)

  6. I walk down the street.
    There is a deep hole in the sidewalk.

    I get a pile of dirt and rocks and shovel it in
    Then pack it with sand and cement
    Roll a steaming road roller over it

    Walk on that road everyday
    and dance a jig over the former hole
    everyday

    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.
    I cannot find a way out.
    I make it my home. ;)
