Philosophy of Nothing

"It's time to clean," said the Devil, dressed in blue.

"Haven't much time, with the sun in the sky."

Einstein brushes dust particles off a chair, and watches them in wonder.

Jesus laughs with the parlor maid as they make their way through the corridors.

"Yes, we must clean today. The moons in the sky, and mankind is in the grey."

Deeply layered symbolism. Thanks for stealing away my entire afternoon while I endeavor to figure you out.

This is amazing poetry. Each statement leading me to the perfect ending. I read Einstein held great regret. Modern invention improved and can destroy the path of life.
"Yes, we must clean today. The moons in the sky, and mankind is in the grey."
The above line is true. Thank you for the outstanding poetry.
