Follow Me

By tommyjoe

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

“Follow me I am your savior I am here for you Follow my behavior.” How easy it is To start something Get up on a rock And say anything People crowd up They point and stare All you have to do is ask And they get completely bare People follow anyone Big Tall Short Small Looks don’t matter Neither does style You’ll always have followers All of the while What I did was simple I stood up and shouted I proclaimed I was god They cried and pouted I quoted some verses They stared in disbelief I was here at last They all sighed in relief Stupid ants in a crowd Follow one, follow all! Start up Wait…there’s a fall There’s always a catch You can’t guess what it is I’ll get you to do You are about to hatch A new life of lies One that I create I hold you up in the open You are the bait You lure them to me One at a time You will me to be All that I say I am what you want What you need Me to be You need people to follow Be it false or it true You need people to follow So I will be that for you Written September 20th, 2001 © on Sep 19 2001 05:12 PM PST   10 • 0 • 9
