{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.
