If you put the declaration within the BEGIN block, yes, it would be scoped
to just that block. So place the declaration outside of the BEGIN block.
my($follow, $follow_skip);
BEGIN {
...
}
Also, use strict is the only thing that complains about out-of-scope
variable usage, and it's more than just a complaint.
