I like to think of dust as an innocuous powdery substance, but back in the day it was a synonym for shit.
We've always called garbage collectors "dustmen," which dates back to a time before sewers. So, they would come to your house to collect your toilet waste.

And that's the "dust" we return to.
And when I said synonym I meant euphemism.
