IN      THE     DEPTHS      OF      MAY. 
                                          
                                
                                   
                                   
                                   
                                   
                                
                                          
 IMAGINE  IF  YOU  WILL, A LUSH BLUEBERRY 
 SPRUCE  FOREST,  WITH ROLLING  HILLS AND 
           KNEE-DEEP UNDERBRUSH.          
                                          
 THE GROUND  IS  SOFT. LEAVES  IN ALL  OF 
 THE  SEVEN  STAGES OF  DECOMPOSITION ARE 
   PACKED LOOSELY TOGETHER... SOMETIMES   
 THERE  ARE ROCKS.  BIGGER  BOULDERS PEEK 
            OUT OF THE HILLS.             
                                          
 THERE  COULD BE, SOMEWHERE IN THE DEPTHS 
 OF IT ALL,  A CREVICE FILLED WITH WATER. 
   BIRD CHERRIES AT THE EDGES, DIPPING    
 THEIR LONG FINGERS  BENEATH THE SURFACE. 
    WATER LILIES, MAYBE. THE WATER IS     
   YELLOW-GREEN WITH POLLEN, AND INSECTS  
      ARE SWARMING ABOVE THE SURFACE.     
                                          
        WATER STRIDERS, MOSQUITOS,        
         BACK FLIES, CRANE FLIES.         
                                          
                                
                                   
                                   
                                   
                                   
                                
                                          
 IN  THIS   CASE  WE  WOULD   USE   DEET, 
 OR DIETHYLTOLUAMIDE AS IT'S ALSO CALLED. 
                                          
 DEET  SHOULD BE  APPLIED TO  YOUR  SKIN. 
 YOU SHOULD COVER ALL SKIN THAT IS  TO BE 
 EXPOSED TO AIR. IT'S OK  TO  GET SOME IN 
 THE  EYES.  RUB  UNTIL IT  FEELS  RIGHT, 
 UNTIL THE SKIN  FEELS GOOD.  LET IT SOAK 
                    IN.                   
                                          
       YOU'VE NOW BECOME POISONOUS.
