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.
