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.
