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
