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
