If you think your dust problem is bad...

Dust in Space

Astronomers suggest that the Universe is twice as bright as it appears, but
DUST blocks out about half of the light emitted from the stars and galaxies.

Incarnations

While mulling our dust inventory, I recalled a certain Windy Miller, a character in a British television show called "Camberwick Green".


And also a plant with the same moniker.

“

Don't think of it as dust. Just think of it as the dirt and dust of far-off lands blowing over here and settling on Pig-Pen! It staggers the imagination! He may be carrying the soil that was trod upon by Solomon or Nebuchadnezzar or Genghis Khan! Wikipedia

Waking up in the night
A sliver glints in the eye ~
It is dust, just dust.

A time of change

"Houses were shut tight, and cloth wedged around doors
and windows, but the dust came in so thinly that it could
not be seen in the air, and it settled like pollen on the chairs
and tables, on the dishes."
- John Steinbeck, The Grapes of Wrath, Chapter 1

dust gets in her eyes

Beauty is but a flower
Which wrinkles will devour;
Brightness falls from the air;
Queens have died young and fair;
Dust hath closed Helen's eye

from A Litany in Time of Plague by Thomas Nashe
