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.
