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.
