Acherontas - Wasteland Revived lyrics

The poet said: "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" What the poet did not know –and I knew neither- Was that from this dust, Watered by the Tears of the damned (as Milton said and Milton was wise), The most precious flower bloomed: a proud Chrysanthemum.
