    This poem discusses the human capacity for suffering and injustice, but maintains hope that justice can arise through a "great sea-change" or pivotal moment in history. In just three sentences, the summary captures that people inflict and endure harm, but once in a rare moment justice may rise up and align with hope, allowing for a further progress beyond revenge.

    THE CURE OF TROY Human beings suffer. They torture one another.

    They get hurt and get hard. No poem or play or song Can fully right a wrong Inflicted and endured. History says, Dont hope On the side of the grave, But then, once in a lifetime The longed for tidal wave Of justice can rise up And hope and history rhyme. So hope for a great sea- change On the far side of revenge. Believe that a further shore Is reachable from here. Believe in miracles. And cures and healing wells. Call miracle self-healing, The utter self revealing Double-take of feeling. If theres fire on the mountain And lightening and storm And a god speaks from the sky That means someone is hearing The outcry and the birth-cry Of new life at its term. It means once in a lifetime That justice can rise up And hope and history rhyme. by Seamus Heaney
