Postern of Fate
For Hannibal and his master
Four great gates has the city of Damascus…
Postern of Fate, the Desert Gate, Disaster’s Cavern, Fort of Fear…
Pass not beneath, O Caravan, or pass not singing. Have you heard
That silence where the birds are dead, yet something pipeth like a bird?
from Gates of Damascus by James Elroy Flecker
