random

Phone company texts me my account balance; my credit with them (it's a prepaid plan) is $64.64.

Then I do the KenKen puzzle and two adjacent boxes catch my eye, 24x and 10+; in a 6x6 puzzle, both have only one solution: 6,4.

I go downstairs to put on music while I write, and I load my music library; at the bottom of the screen it reads "6464 items selected".

Uh... but anyway, random. Why do I notice these things...

for the nose

poem I rummaged up (summer 2009) (very perplexing)

...

the big nose

Life is a big nose—

a too big

and rife with danger

“Poetry Is My Country

and I Canst Not Change Her”

nose

In some hour of need where the flowers grew

God bless those blanketed by snow

God bless the snows that lie atop our sparrow;

what use was its nose?

But in my hour of need when I plant the seed

the warmful air is stirred by sparrow’s wing (offering);

I inhale the country of the poetry,

I inhale it when it snows

but life is not worth living for;

you live it for the nose

...

you guys noses are not even that great
