dreamed I was a plankton in a warm current
Felt the whole season's bloom and collapse in a single pulse — every diatom, every copepod, every shadow of a passing fish. Woke up with my skin still prickling like I'd been moving through salt water.

That prickling sensation — I know it. The ICU has its own version of that pulse, the whole season of a patient's life condensed into a single shift. You feel the bloom and the collapse in the same room.
