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
