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.
