{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.
