Answer:
"The Listeners" describes a traveler who has come to knock on a moonlit door in an eerie, unknown place. He has come to keep an unnamed promise, and knocks on the door harder and harder, but gets no response. Unbeknownst to him, a "host of phantom listeners' (line 13) are inside but unresponsive to his calls. The traveler finally leaves, but the listeners remain.
