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.
