from this week 2014 (I was 70)
Sui Shan Mai practices acupressure massage
At Zen Wellness center he is called Tommy
to make it easier for American clients to remember.
Even without his name they would remember the massage.
His technique accentuates the pressure.
Finding points in the body where pain resides
he ignites the fire in which healing hides.
He encircles the spot where nerve and muscle knot.
With sparks from his fingers
and the heat of his hands
he makes the ache dissipate.
He opens rusted channels of energy
and my breath like a blacksmith's bellows
blows out across the flame.
