{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.
