the Sun rises
in the East

the Sun sets
in the West

it's warm
in the South

it Dark
to the North

the sinners
the lost souls
the suicides
they hides

north

outside
of sacred ground
north is found

there in the darkness
the starkness
of it's sound
is all around

north

where it's cold
where it
takes it's hold
if you be so bold
there you'll grow old
or so i've been told

north

guess i'll find out
what i'm all about
i may shout
i may yell
hell
who can tell

i'm headin'
north
see what's ta be found
in the sound
of
North

Well, Steve, since I live in the tropics, I have to say I can so connect to this... I love the north. Lived years in Alaska and there the north is dark except for the short breathless summers when the sun is 24/7 for about a month or so.

There are no hurricanes in the north. Good point to consider. Though earthquakes aren't much fun either.

I have been North, lots to see, too cold in the winter and too humid in the summer for me though, but some breathtaking beauty to see if you have air conditioning and heat in your car. Very much worth the trip just the same. Not much USA south of you though anyway.
take care,

Future: The Spiritual Story of Humanity by Glenn Martin

Histories of the world are generally written to either celebrate technology and science, or to herald doom. My book examines the path of the spirit in the onward rush.
