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.
