{Roe} Deer

         Woven Of Various Grasses.

          Looking At The Viewer.]         
                                          
                                     
                               
                                     
                                          
 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.
