Blog of "Ozymandias"

I totally got this "Clash of the Titans" feel from this story. The imagery painted a very mythological picture for me. A slain Greek statue that once held strength fallen weakly to the ground lying there in shambles but still with smirk of invincibility, "And a wrinkled lip, and sneer of cold command". This poem held a lot of irony because the statue like most soldiers feel as if they are invincible as long as they have weapons and military to follow. Allowing themselves to get large egos, and the fact that they will always continue reign. But like the way all wars result someone loses control and as whole everyone loses soul because war can never be looked at without looking at the damages. "Look on my works, ye mighty, and despair." The statue that was most likely created to give as a gift to some ruler or head commander is really just a fallen victim to the violence and destruction of war. The statue is a joke.
