    • The narrator meets a traveller who tells him about a decayed stature that he saw in a desert.
    • The statue was of a long forgotten ancient King: the arrogant Ozymandias, ‘king of kings.’
    • The poem is ironic and one big metaphor: Human power is only temporary – the statue now lies crumbled in the sand, and the most powerful human creations cannot resist the power of nature.
