A FINALITY OF FOLLOWS













There are so many
maxims regarding
the word "follow"
From when you're
very little - you hear:
Follow me, follow mommy
follow daddy, and you do
Follow the leader
Follow the teacher
Follow that tune
Follow the work
Follow the sun
Follow the game
Follow the money
Follow the yellow brick road
Follow the drinking gourd
Follow your dreams
Follow your heart
Follow your head
Follow my lead
Follow that car
Follow the faith
Follow the rules
Until the end of your life
when you're in the lead car
and everyone else is told to
Follow the hearse.
