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
