{Roe} Deer

        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.
