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 favor 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.

Fire and Ice, by #RobertFrost

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 say that for destruction ice
Is also great
And would suffice.

And further still at an unearthly height,
One luminary #clock against the sky
Proclaimed the time was neither wrong nor right.
I have been one acquainted with the night

Where Love and Need Are One
My object in living is to uniteMy avocation and my vocationAs my two eyes make one in sight.Only where love and need are one,And the work is play for mortal stakes,Is the deed ever really doneFor heaven and the future’s sakes.— Robert Frost, Two Tramps in Mud Time

One of the #best #sentences in #American #poetry is in these lines from #RobertFrost's #poem "Directive":

Back out of all this now too much for us,
Back in a time made simple by the loss
Of detail, burned, dissolved, and broken off
Like graveyard marble sculpture in the weather,
There is a house that is no more a house
Upon a farm that is no more a farm
And in a town that is no more a town.

Foes slink to Gondor and conspire:
I'll teach them well to fear my ire
And extirpate their sad cabal
In Udûn, and the cracks of fire.

These rings are lovely in my thrall-
One more will bring the wherewithal
To rule and bring and find them all
And in the darkness bind them all.

Whose rings these are, I think I know.
They've all come back to Mordor, though,
Except the Elvish Three--and Mine,
Whose whereabouts I'd like to know!

My flunkies I must reassign
From wonted quotas of rapine
To hunt for bumpkins from the "Shire"
While I, back home, grow saturnine.

Robert Frost “The Road Not Taken”

America's Most Widely Misread Literary Work

David Orr: “The poem isn’t a salute to can-do individualism. It’s a commentary on the self-deception we practice when constructing the story of our own lives.”

(Das wäre auch meine Interpretation.)

I’ve been thinking… which text is subject to more misreading and misinterpretation?

#vss365 "Difference"

Since long ago my journey started,
No road in two was ever parted;
I had no choice from which to choose,
But time to linger, time to lose.
I held no deep, abstract debate,
Yet still I chose to hesitate,
And from that path I often strayed…
A minor difference it has made.

The woods are lovely, dark and deep,
But I have promises to keep,
And miles to go before I sleep,
And miles to go before I sleep.

And miles to go before I sleep,
