Inspired by Johannes Vermeer’s The Astronomer (1668)

From every point,
in all space,
at any time.

Only these three,
states, modalities, conditions,
determine this world.

Know, realize, forget
Ideas, truths, falsehoods.
Never, now, always.
Seek, shun, welcome.
Devil, Man, God.
From, idling, go.
Within, without, beyond.
Nightmares, dreams, reality.

From every point,
In all space,
at any time.

Of the three,
wills, orders, systems,
this world obeys,
one must choose!
