{Roe} Deer

 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.
