Follow, Follow, Follow, Follow
Who do we follow?
Why do we follow?
What do we follow?
Follow the Scientist
Placate the Aethist
Tolerate the Artist
Or smile for the Universe's Dentist?
Follow the Prophet
Or follow the Apostle?
Follow the Crotchet
Or follow the living Epistle?
Follow the Man of God;
Reverend, Apologist, Archbishop
Daddy, Papa, My Lord
Or the King of Kings?
Wash the feet of diamond studded cleats
Or the cracked jigger-filled soles of street kids?
Kiss the hands of the Priest
Keep the dirty laundry of the pulpit neat
Make the dessert of false doctrine a favorite treat
Or feed on a whole platter of the Word's meat?
Ignore your family's troubles
Befriend the crumbs the dog daily swallows
Maintain the posture of a malnourished callow
Or ingest on the digest of wisdom's intimate bellow
Follow the seed
Follow the fleet
Follow the tune of entangled feet
Or the pattern of freedom's beat?
The fastest way to the soul is the bosom
The fruit of labor is Lack's blossom
Stress and depression as bold as Lamar Odom
Or inhale the true breath of Love's freedom?
Follow the ladder
Follow the leader
Follow the bleeder
Or follow the wider road cheaper?
Follow the nourishing river of honor
Forget not your Maker
Forget not MY commands
Follow your heart
Follow your pacesetter from the start
Follow, Follow, Follow, Follow
Who do we follow?
Why do we follow?
What do we follow?
