{Roe} Deer

 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.
