Poems for the Homies - Tim Ashley

how long, how long have we known
each day was going to be fun
everytime the outdoors called to us
we would soak in the sun for years

creeping out from the light of our dens
and finding out we'd be great friends
brothers of the sand, music create with
drumming hands, and those ridiculous
tans when frying the bacon pans

then the daily routine became a
beam of light in dark days where
fluorescent screens lit my face
shrouded in wafting smoke, beers
till the bottles created a glass moat

never forgetting the ordinary drive
eating burgers and french fries, beach
trips with blue skies, extraordinary weather
I instantly felt better, the freshness you dealt
real love I felt, as hot as when CPU chips melt

I wanna be with you where you are
that's where the fun is at, pure joy
even if you didn't buy all those spectacular toys
but you did, you tech guru, thanks for freeing me
from the horror of windows without a door

a few shows here and there, rocking head to and
fro your hands in the air! like you just don't care
but you did and the real concert happened
right at your pad, every night we had a helluva
time, after crimes and land-minds and highway signs
you were too kind

let you know your heart helped me shine :D

Thanks Tim. You angry bro?
