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
