{Roe} Deer

        Woven Of Various Grasses.

 In The  North, The Deer Is Often Used As 
 A  Symbol  For The  Forest'S Agency,  Or 
    Its Self-Knowledge. Watching Eyes.    
                                          
 Warmer Regions Instead  Ascribe  It  The 
 Knife (Teeth,  Rumors  Of  Violence), Or 
    Obsession (Unblinking Eyes, Always    
      Awake, Scrapie-Like Behavior).      
                                          
                                     
                               
                                     
                                          
 The Deer Is A Cross Between A  Horse And 
 A  Dog. It  Bears  A  Resemblance  To  A 
 Young    Salix   Tree,    And   Has    A 
     Sweet-Smelling Nose, Like Honey.     
                                          
 The Horns  Of A  Deer Is Called Antlers. 
 They Have A  Complex  Fractal Shape, And 
 Are  Believed  To  Enable  The  Deer  To 
 "Fold" Through Passages  Which Should Be 
 Too Narrow  For Them. Antlers From  Dead 
 Deer   Seem   To   Lose   This    Power. 
                                          
 A Deer'S Heart  Has Two  Chambers, Where 
 It Stores  All The  Secrets It Might See 
 During  The Course Of  It'S  Life.  With 
 Age  The  Secrets  Will  Harden  Into  A 
    Caramellized Structure, Which Will    
 Eventually  Block The Flow Of Blood, And 
              Kill The Deer.
