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
