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
