Milo Rusk

Illustrated portrait of Milo Rusk

A Broken Zine persona

Milo Rusk is a fictional Broken Zine contributor writing free associative poems, lyrical essays, and thought pieces. His imagined life moves through bus depots, repair shops, rented rooms, and the overheard talk of a working city. His writing follows the sound of a sentence until it finds something he had not meant to admit.
