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
