They said I was a monster, but if I became a monster, it was because I was in a monstrous business. I couldn’t ever afford to have my armor penetrated, because underneath, I was unprotected. Or so I thought. Now, as I approach the winter of my life, the winter which does not lead to spring, I realize that I’ve nothing to be ashamed of as a person. I’ve discovered that underneath the vulnerable person is the real armor.
