blog like um 5? fire and ice-robert frost

Fire and Ice

Some say the world will end in fire,
Some say in ice.
From what I’ve tasted of desire
I hold with those who favour fire.
But if it had to perish twice,
I think I know enough of hate
To say that for destruction ice
Is also great
And would suffice. 

 

so we did this poem in class and it turned out that it was actually like a pretty deep poem 

i read this poem while listening to a very like upbeat song that makes you feel good and after reading this poem it kinds made me have a like a uneasy feeling like. you really have to think about like sometimes ha

for instance when we got facts about this poem it made things click about like the 9 circles of hell or w/e 

my favorite line in this poem was um the whole thing l

everything was so different and opposite but yet it made sense and it made you think.

after reading this poem what i got out of it was no matter what the world we come to justice and everything will be fair.

depending on whether it is destroyed by fire or it its to be destroyed by ice it would all be the same. its just so simple its hard to understand about it all.

this poem has a lot of metaphor in it about like the circles of hell and if you didn’t really know that much about it it would be very hard to understand.

it also has a weird rhyme scheme but it has one. 

after all this thinking it makes me wonder about the end of the world and if ice would be better or fire but in the end they both would burn. its just so deep its hard to understand which to believe in and depending on which one you believe in is it okay?
