Mainly due to the latest attempted read, have a taste of this:
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 that, for destruction, ice
is also great, and would suffice.
— Robert Frost
(Quoted from memory, so please excuse any irregularities.)
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.
Quite. It did seem somewhat lacking at the time, but I didn’t have a book handy to check.
