T.S. Eliot the waste land
And the dry stone no sound of water. Only
There is shadow under this red rock,
Come in under the shadow of this red rock,
And I will show you something different from either
Your shadow at morning striding behind you
Or your shadow at evening rising to meet you;
I will show you fear in a handful of dust.
And the dry stone no sound of water. Only

Come in under the shadow of this red rock,
And I will show you something different from either
Your shadow at morning striding behind you
Or your shadow at evening rising to meet you;
I will show you fear in a handful of dust.

@Lostpoet Just noting how odd it is for me to see T.S Eliot referenced here on SW twice within five minutes (for me)....
It's a dark reference, but full of imagery, meaning, and I hope your shadow makes strides on you to feel better, to not be fearful of the dust... to see(k) something different.
