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.
