Learning Acupuncture Poem by Mark Nichols

This ancient Chinese healin' has been passed along for years
Unfortunately, in the States it's quite new
But I've taken two semesters at the tech school here in town
And I can't wait to get acupuncture'in you

Most people haven't heard yet of the acupuncture/rolf combination
But It's sort of east meets west
With some Tai Chi thrown in the stew
Big needle, yes, but I know that you'll suffer less, you see?
Because the smaller needles are less familiar to me

You know what they say: pain is inevitable, but suffering is optional
Feel that? Oh yeah! Good, now how ‘bout a little Rolfing?
Hai! Ha! AAAAHHHHH! Sorry…

You'll be in agony for a few weeks
and throwing up in a hundred different ways
But that's normal when you've been studying
Ancient Chinese medicine for only 14 days
