So I need to give a speech about a Robert Frost poem of our choosing, and I have chosen

A Question - Robert Frost


A voice said, Look me in the stars

And tell me truly, men of earth,

If all the soul-and-body scars

Were not too much to pay for birth.


I dont want anyone to analyse it for me, I just want to know what Frost means, and what he is trying to say here.

And I also have questions regarding my own understanding of this poem.
Are lines 1 and 2 the voice of a critique of the Earth, is it the voice of Robert Frost himself, or perhaps God?

I dont get the last lines though so if someone could give me their own understanding of this poem, that would be awesome.

Thanks

Please help, I would just like an interpretation of the last two lines.
