{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.
