Frosts finishes the poem saying that the destruction of the earth by fire or ice doesn't matter because both are equally destructive, "And would suffice.""(Line 9) .
The final line of this poem is that the world is going to be destroyed, and along with it everyone else. Death is an ingrained part of human life, and that people should just accept the fact that they are going to die and should not fear death. Another interpretation one might make is that the world will destroy itself through individuals. People consumed with the "fire,"" or desire, and people who are ice-cold with hatred can also be a factor in ending the world. Either way, Frost says that death is inevitable, and people have to accept that fact. Frost's belief in accepting death is further solidified with his poem, "Out Out "".
Robert Frost's poem, "Out Out "" is another poem that deals with Robert Frost's view of death. The very first lines gives the reader an image of a tense and hostile environment. "The buzz saw snarled and rattled in the yard.""(Line 1) Frost uses personification to show that the saws are giving off noises that a wild animal or a dog would give off. Frost describes the surrounding environment and a secluded and isolated place. The very next line, Frost uses the image of rattling and snarling buzz saws to emphasize the hostile atmosphere. Right away, Frost creates a scene that has an ominous shadow over it. "To please the boy by giving him the half-hour/That a boy counts so much when saved from work.""(Line 11-12) Frost uses these lines to give the reader an image of a worker, who is still a boy, cherishing every moment of his life, even half and hour. The point Frost is trying to get across is that people should live their lives as though it were their last moment, because no one knows if that is indeed true or not. .
The next couple of lines show the buzz saw taking a life of its own, attacking the worker's hand.
