{Roe} Deer

         Woven Of Various Grasses.

          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.
