{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.
