Maureen Asino Biography

Gosh, golly, gee, I can talk about myself here! Well, I'm a Filipina college-student and loving it. I like walking around when it's windy and warm, with white clouds because the sky is what I picture heaven to be like. My hobbies include gawking at big, shiny, 'street-fighter' style motorcycles, as I've seen them called, as well as listening to loud rock music. In this regard Youtube is my favorite cyber haunt because of Hyde, Strapping Young Lad, Buckethead and other people that don't get much airplay here (Nine Inch Nails fricken rawks but there's not much variety in rotation) . Through my writing I hope to gain a better consciousness of myself. Before I kept telling myself 'I'm such a kid, I do many things wrong, I have goals but I always seem to come up short...' Now I'm in a more peaceful place and I'm trying to embrace the possibility that I'm becoming a better person and that I CAN become a better person...)

The Best Poem Of Maureen Asino

Wretchedness

When I cry I watch my tears dropp onto my glasses
Cool streaks of salt water leave burning paths upon my cheeks
My nose begins to leak and I sound all the more pathetic
when I snivel in vain to hold in my body's humiliating release
resorting to wishing my sleeves could hold more liquid grief
I am locking myself into my world
A dank empty well of the mind
Reaching recesses I can't see in daylight
when I'm too distracted to remember just how deep my faults go
I reach myself here
I connect with the deepest part of my heart
When I cry
I cry myself out

It's nice to know me
