Fire and Ice
Poem by Robert Frost ( 1874-1963)
Some say the world will end in fire,
Some say in ice.
From what I’ve tasted of desire
I hold with those who favor fire.
But if it had to perish twice,
I think I know enough of hate
To know that for destruction ice
Is also great
And would suffice
ConfiDistance
Selective Transparency
Don’t Trust Verify
