For Hannibal and his master
Four great gates has the city of Damascus …
Postern of Fate, the Desert Gate, Disaster’s Cavem,
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
