{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.
