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.
