{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.
