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
