Seamus Heaney, the Nobel Prize winning poet laureate from Ireland - TopicsExpress



          

Seamus Heaney, the Nobel Prize winning poet laureate from Ireland died this week. A wise man. THE CURE AT TROY, by Seamus Heaney 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 or endured. … History says, Don’t hope On this 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.
