. The Door





Out of it steps our future, through this door


Enigmas, executione­rs and rules,


Her Majesty in a bad temper or


A red-nosed Fool who makes a fool of fools.

A past it might so carelessly let in,


A widow with a missionary grin,


The foaming inundation at a roar.





We pile our all against it when afraid,


And beat upon its panels when we die:


By happening to be open once, it made





Enormous Alice see a wonderland


That waited for her in the sunshine and,


Simply by being tiny, made her cry.





W.H. Auden
