{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.
