Words Follow You


Music – Live and Laugh


Words Follow You …

I am usually quite imaginative,
Even if my creative,
Might feel a little abrasive…
… or belated or faded!


But it’s the way at times of the complicated,
The overly intricate and complexicated!
I care NOT for the tone,
…. Used with me that the latter word is unknown!


Who gives a monkey’s when it’s at home?
We are adults here. We can forgive and can condone!
Part and parcel of being overly imaginative,
Is that we allow ourselves the liberal use of alternatives?


Words, wordery, wordsmithery and slippery is manipulative!
Agreeance is merely communicative and collaborative!
It’s what we as imaginative and creative cooperatives…
… do!
Don’t deny it either – YOU!!
Because our words follow through


Afterall we use words to our advantage,
We twist and tickle, tease and taunt and manage,
Letters, sentences, grammatical paragraphical passages!
To become romantical, fantastical and oft enchanting sycophantic!!


We do it because we can!
… we seduce words and entertain ideas of grandeur that even …
Those new to the art of imaginative creativity with reduced spans …
… of attention…
Can garner confidence …
….. and slowly build up and accrue wordery cognizance!
Not forgetting competence!
Or astute and acute variableness!


It’s all words. It’s always words. Wherever you go,
Words Follow You!
…. They Always Do!
