AN ANECDOTE            
                                          
 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 
        ABOUT MYSELF, AND MY LIFE
