2/18/2018 Therapeutic hypothermia The cold preserves my soul A still expands the night Suspended in half-animated state The still demands the constellations Slow and introspect Reflect on now, the lull Orien runs the bull The seven sisters, never saints ****** the men they adore The weight of day fades away And still I stand, absorbed  Neck craned heavenward Mind full dark and starlight poured Heart bellowing apace Time is brain, time is mind In this case, turtle conquers hare Intentional at this metabolic rate Still they dance and chase around the axis Turtle cheating time and space By slowing down the mortal race Orien minds the bull The seven sisters narrate Still I stand, chill permeates and I find desire relaxes

The Turtle and The Hare
2/18/2018 Therapeutic hypothermia The cold preserves my soul A still expands the night Suspended in half-animated state The still demands the constellations Slow and introspect Reflect on now, the lull Orien runs the bull The seven sisters, never saints ****** the men they adore The weight of day fades away And still I stand, absorbed  Neck craned heavenward Mind full dark and starlight poured Heart bellowing apace Time is brain, time is mind In this case, turtle conquers hare Intentional at this metabolic rate Still they dance and chase around the axis Turtle cheating time and space By slowing down the mortal race Orien minds the bull The seven sisters narrate Still I stand, chill permeates and I find desire relaxes
Therapeutic hypothermia is a method of slowing down metabolism in patients after a heart attack to preserve brain cells. I thought about this after standing outside on a winter night and feeling peaceful
