{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.
