Bouncing around in my head

As I noted, way back.

1. Stare at candle, unblinking, 15 minutes. (Learning to concentrate attention in preparation for meditation.)
2. My ankle hurts, my eyes do blink, my body twitches
3. My tongue runs away.
4. 8 inches of snow by April 1. (The 36-incher hit a few days later.)
5. It’s funny, I should go with the daughter of a cattle rancher and come out loving seafood and chicken livers.
6. Title for a poem or collection? One Thousand American Fungi.
7. I walk around in a shroud of music.
8. Walking with my long hair past a barber shop, I feel guilty: the barber, reading magazines, no business.
9. Why do girls use paper tissues, but guys prefer handkerchiefs?
