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.
