Believe that further shore is reachable from here.

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.

It's ragged-raw and elegant on a spare set and it saws on the bone the way only Greek tragedies can.
