North by Northwest

Write me a poem titled

'North by Northwest' (N-NW), my son



But first allow me to give you

some insight that may aid

you in it's compilation



East - represents self

West - represents that which is other than self

such as others, materialism, wealth, etc.



North - represents the Supreme Lord

South - represents all that it entails

opposite and outside of



Un be-known to most - you must first

Travel east to get north

Many have traveled due north

Only to find out - no matter how

Far they traveled due north

It would only be, due north



Now when you travel east

Try not to get caught up - for

It is very easy to get lost

In the city of Ego



As you travel east for a spell

You'll come upon an intersection

Called the "X-roads", here's

Where you want to travel

Northeast - this will lead you

To the True North

Which will be 'North by Northeast'



A lot of wisdom is hidden in 'North by Northwest'

Though - not the most direct route

But the wisdom is - "The Lord doth guide his

Wayward children."



You now have all the tools at hand

To write me a poem titled

'North by Northwest' my son
