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.
