Song Zhuangzhuang
SNOWMAN
Big snowfall in town.
In an acupuncture clinic,
five doctors in white
sit around drinking tea.
No patients at all.
Outside it’s white far and wide.
One of the white-coats
builds a small snowman
on the window sill
and sticks a needle
in the snowman’s butt.
The white-coats are laughing,
each gets a needle in,
finishing their
work for the day.
