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.
Ah, the not so gentle Frost. I wish we saw him more often.
The poem could be an allegory for so many things, but if science is fire and religion is ice, then I'd say it is a tossup between fire and ice.

a perfect tossup would be Upsilon Andromeda; with one side always hot as lava and the other chilled possibly below freezing.
The planet has been compared to that Frost prose almost everytime...
correction: missed the 'b'
planet is Upsilon Andromeda 'b'
:-D.
Thanks. I hadn't thought of that.
