From what I’ve tasted of desire I hold with those who favor fire
by saying he holds with those who favor fire, he says in fact that he favors desire, which he has experienced in the past. He would like the world to end in desire.
So he subtly changes the question from how do you think the world will end to how do you want it to end. But then being Frost, and somewhat ambiguous, he changes it back, deciding that hate will also suffice (to destroy the world).

I mean obviously it is just very playful.
