Answer:

Explanation:

In this poem, Frost points out that humans will be the agents of our own destruction, one way or another.  He compares "desire" to "fire" and "hate" to "ice." Both desire and hate are represented by physical forces that could lead to our extinction.

We might imagine desire to be something like greed, perhaps for natural resources—oil, fresh water, natural gas, and so on—since nations conflict time and again over resources such as these.  Perhaps he chooses fire as representative of desire because of the wars we fight with each other when we want things the other has.  

We might imagine hate to be based on race, religion, ethnicity, or any other kind of personal differences that might seem significant enough for us to harm or abandon one another over them. Perhaps Frost chooses ice to represent this feeling or force because hate can lead one to turn their back on someone, freezing them out, so to speak, allowing them to suffer and die. The speaker does decide that he believes it will be "fire" or our desire that does us in. However, he admits, via a wry understatement, that our hatred for one another is significant, and so it could easily end us as well.
