We talk a lot about our identities, and we talk a lot about working to clear misconceptions about those identities.

I am a child of the poisonous wind that copulated with the East River on an oil-slick, garbage infested midnight. I turn about on my own parentage.

Manhattan is your punisher, let me be you shield.
