what does ice stand for from the poem fire and ice

Dear student,

In the poem ''Fire and Ice', ice stands for the negative emotions of hatred, cruelty, intolerance, insensitivity. These emotions can take a hold of our words and actions and lead to destruction. The poet says that ice or hatred,  like fire or desires, can be equally responsible for the end of the world.
