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.
