Doe eyes feminine and fearful appear in the darkened woods sheltered by autumn brush what beauties graceful necks and tanned hides silver and swift like aliens they stand caught in the headlights of civilization 4/10/20

Very good, but it could have done with more poetic "sprinklers" - some alliteration or unexpected words.

I inhaled your doe description deep inside my own doe imagery reaction all the while thinking of my husband who hunts; such a contradiction! I would hunt, were it necessary for survival, otherwise, those innocent eyes would have me paralyzed with remorse! I think this will place well in the contest, it sure did with me. CayCay

I could not stand to shoot one of these lovelies. The meat would not taste good.
