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.
