{Roe} Deer           
                                
                                
                                    
                                          
                                          
 [Picture  Of A Deer Head,  In A  Garland 
         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.
