{Roe} Deer           
                                
                                
                                    
                                          
                                          
 [Picture  Of A Deer  Head, In A  Garland 
         Woven Of Various Grasses.        
 The  Deer Has  A Crown  Of Rowan, And Is 
         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.
