“I write from the various experiences I live. Not every poem comes from my person…” — Rupi Kaur

'Milk and Honey' was written with me being honest to myself, kind of pulling at the things that I hear the most and saying that out loud, and you know, that thing that we hear the most is most universal, and so that rings true with all folks. The language used in the poetry is extremely, extremely accessible.

Poetry and art are key influences in changing how we look at taboos.

I did not start out thinking I'm going to become a feminist poet. It was a tag I was given.

People like that I wrote a book - that's cute, but oh, making a business out of it? That's not nice.
