#¨#¨#¨#¨## TODAY IT  RAINED, AND I WOULD GO OUTSIDE ¨¨#¨#¨#¨#¨
#¨#¨#¨#¨¨# I THOUGHT, SO I SMOKED  A  PIPE  AND GOT ¨##¨#¨#¨#¨
#¨#¨#¨#¨## DRESSED,  AND  OUTSIDE  THE   RAIN   HAD ¨¨#¨#¨#¨#¨
#¨#¨#¨#¨¨# TURNED  INTO SNOW SO THICK  THAT  IT WAS ¨##¨#¨#¨#¨
#¨#¨#¨#¨## AS DENSE FOG ... AND THEN  I WENT TO GET ¨¨#¨#¨#¨#¨
#¨#¨#¨#¨¨# THE MAIL, BUT THERE WAS A WOMAN  AND  WE ¨##¨#¨#¨#¨
#¨#¨#¨#¨## TALKED A LITTLE.  NOW BECAUSE I WAS HIGH ¨¨#¨#¨#¨#¨
#¨#¨#¨#¨¨# AND  IT WAS SNOWING SO FUNNY  AND I  HAD ¨##¨#¨#¨#¨
#¨#¨#¨#¨## AN UMBRELLA  AGAINST  THE SNOW, BUT SNOW ¨¨#¨#¨#¨#¨
#¨#¨#¨#¨¨# ALL OVER MY  FACE ANYWAY, AND I WONDERED ¨##¨#¨#¨#¨
