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
