What does the poet mean by the line 'Look on my works, ye Mighty and despair!’? What does it reveal about Ozymandias as a king?​

Answer and Explanation:

In the poem "Ozymandias" by Percy Shelley, the speaker recounts the story told by a traveler, who found the ruins of what was once a kingdom. Among the ruins was the statue of a king, Ozymandias, and the inscription, "Look on my works, ye Mighty and despair!" The line shows how arrogant Ozymandias was. He did not seem to consider his own frailty as a human being, much less the possibility of his kingdom being destroyed in the future. It is quite ironical to read such boastful words when all there is around is in ruins. Nothing is left besides the words themselves. Even their meaning is lost.

Answer:

It was a beautiful day lemonade so sweet, probably not good for your teeth. The sun was shining, just a little bit of mist on the other side of the wall. As I'm lying down relaxing with the warm sun on my skin until a shrill cry echoed in the fog, I was only 15 at the time. I had no idea what I was about to get myself into.

As I stand up, I feel the cold mist breathe across my skin. Suddenly It's dark in the blink of an eye, everyone and everything was gone. The warm sun turned cold, everything around me was depressing. A little bit of sunlight still left, I see chase and Anika running after a faint shadow I assume is Marilyn. Left in the dust with nothing but fear, I start yelling at them to wait up. Filled with questions I run as fast as my feet can carry me up to them.

I see them climb over the wall, Hesitant at first I look back, then lookup. As I make my way up the wall, climbing on vines. I can't think of anything. I'm just climbing, thoughtlessly climbing up a wall I had no idea what was over. As I get to the top I hear Chase start yelling my name, as I look over the wall I'm frozen with fear. I see something unbelievable.

(I hope this helps, feel free to change anything!)
