{Roe} Deer

        Woven Of Various Grasses.

 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.
