Ozymandias

By Percy Bysshe Shelley

I met a traveller from an antique land,

Who said--"Two vast and trunkless legs of stone

Stand in the desart....Near them, on the sand,

Half sunk a shattered visage lies, whose frown,

And wrinkled lip, and sneer of cold command,

Tell that its sculptor well those passions read

Which yet survive, stamped on these lifeless things,

The hand that mocked them, and the heart that fed;

And on the pedestal, these words appear:

My name is Ozymandias, King of Kings,

Look on my Works, ye Mighty, and despair!

Nothing beside remains.

Round the decay Of that colossal Wreck,

boundless and bare

The lone and level sands stretch far away."

All that is so true. I’ve been wondering how the museum and the monuments have escaped the Moslem’s wrath. I often read Egyptian tweets using Google Chrome translator, I’ll check there more often to see if anything is being said about it.
