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.
