Goodreads asked Monroe Ariel:

Where did you get the idea for your most recent book?

Monroe Ariel I wanted to revolve this collection around around a certain theme. I wanted the poems to tell somewhat of a story. The collection starts out with a short story that introduces you to what is going on, and then the poems go on to tell what the female character is experiencing. Her OutSpoken Lips© and™ are saying whatever she feels, and she is not holding anything back. The poems hit on interactions with family, relationships, addiction, horrific experiences, and life expectations.
