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.
