{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.
