Ozymandias

In this poem a king who calls himself the "king of kings" (721) built a statue of himself at the hight of his power. Though he was a powerful man when he built the statue it know lies forgotten in the desert half buried in sand. He could have been the most powerful man of his world but has long been forgotten. His tribute to himself like the memory of him has been forgotten.
