How does the poem depict the two contrasting ideas-"fire and ice"? Can hatred destroy us and the world? Explain bringing out values which can make this world a better place to live in.

1. The poem shows how ice and focus are different, yet powerful in their ways and that both have the capacity to destroy the world, similar to emotions and feeling. To confirm this, the author makes an analogy about fire representing bad and powerful feelings such as arrogance, anger, cruelty and indifference, while fire represents bad emotions such as hatred, greed and insensitivity.

2. The author shows that, like ice, hate can consume ourselves and the world, destroying and destroying everything around us in a powerful and unpleasant way.

3. To bring out values that can make the world a better place to live, we must cultivate good feelings, be autruistic, sincere, kind and return bad feelings like hatred and repudiation to things that destroy our society like inequality, racism and prejudice.
