My body was smarter than me
its endurance was less than mine
it said enough when I said more
my body stopped
When I went on (and I went on) 
my body couldn't
fail 
Nonetheless I stood up
Forcly walked away
when my body is shadowing behind

A poem by Yona Wallach
Nitrous oxide (dinitrogen oxide or dinitrogen monoxide),
commonly known as laughing gas, nitrous, nitro, or nos.
is a chemical compound, an oxide of nitrogen with the formula N 2O.

At room temperature, it is a colourless non-flammable gas,
and has a slightly sweet scent and taste.
At elevated temperatures,
nitrous oxide is a powerful oxidiser similar to molecular oxygen.
