{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.
