Asia Mystique

Philadelphia, PA

Hi my name Asia, my stage name is Asia Mystique and I come from a line of poets! Since I was a child I have found deep comfort in writing my own stories and escaping through the stories of others. There are a lot of unfulfilled dreams within my family history, due to lack of self belief and risk taking. I am here to fulfill the dream and heal my lineage. To anyone who listens to and receives what I am to saying, thank you.

I am Grace Howard, a 14 year old from a little village in Oxfordshire, England.

Sysko Nabisco

Philadelphia, PA

Hi, I'm that guy with that luck, so I can only have one-night stands………. up comedy at your place, my place, or stand in a doorway so people will have to ask us to move, and we just bust out laughing. I'm very much allergic to jail, the streets, and gang stalking. Ayo, I row solo; seriously, I am the most hated tolerated guy in Philly…. but I was born in Ecuador, and my Grandfather Pancho swam 6 of us on a banana leaf. Lol, I was joking. I got locked in the dumbest shit you can ever imagine, and now there is a woman of the night swiping people's wallets. My hobbies are just being mysterious; much love to you, jackalopes. Keep on Keeping on.
