Cassandra de Alba (Ugly/Sad!) is a poet living in Massachusetts. Her chapbooks habitats (Horse Less Press, 2016) and ORB (Reality Hands, 2018) are about deer and the moon, respectively. She is a co-host at the Boston Poetry Slam at the Cantab Lounge and an associate editor at Pizza Pi Press.
I regret that the world’s not weirder. People talk all kinds of shit about deer, but to me there’s something eerie and otherworldly and almost magic about them. I suppose I wanted to free deer from their status as garden pests and human prey.
