{Roe} Deer

         Woven Of Various Grasses.        
 The Deer  Has A Crown Of  Rowan, And  Is 
          Looking At The Viewer.]         
                                          
                                     
                               
                                     
                                          
 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.
