In 1920, Robert Frost wrote very this famous poem, 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.
Since I too am an American poet, I have taken the liberty to update his musing on the world’s imminent demise.
Here’s my 21st-century version; it’s called:
Hot and Cold
Some say the climate change is toward hot,
yet why are we so cold?
Our carbon emissions have increased a lot;
We thought we would be getting hot.
But if we’re breaking record colds so old,
I think I know enough of change
to say this global warming's bitter cold
is within the range,
or so I’m told.
