{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.
