The Rumen is a collaboration between writers and poets from a variety of demographics and backgrounds. Like the guts of an ungulate, we want The Rumen to be a space for ideas and experiences to digest, ferment, and transform.

By Matt Gulley
a quick search, a type and tap // or a phone-sought friend, at longest last
