please forgive me,i hope i'm not wasting your time,but todays the day i pay respect, to a poet friend of mine....i met him while hiking,i was playing my guitar,he just sat down and started singing,and his words touched my heart....i just kept playing,because his message was so pure,his words grabbed my heart and made my spirit soar....his mentors were jesus, and god up above,so he always had a message, of mankinds loves.... although his soul was pure,his mind was a stray,thats why i'm writing you this message, on this sad sad day...you see tom was mistaken,he had his soul and drugs mixed up,and as we became closer,he realized,and promised he would stop....he picked a song to help guide him on his way,why he picked clutch,i didn't realize right away....you see tom believed jesus would return one fine day,and deliver us a message, to guide us on our way,the rest is just metaphores,and his struggle from within,even the organ and guitar say don't do heroine, and drugs will steal your soul, from very deep within.... if you listen closely you can even hear his name,and ever since that day my life hasn't been the same,but i know one day we'll be jambing high above the earth,i'll bring my guitar and tom will have the verse....REST IN PEACE BROTHER WE ALL MISS YOU AND THINK ABOUT YOU EVERYDAY.[CLUTCH 10001110101]
