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
