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.
