{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.
