Poetry

Poem of the Week (http://www.potw.org) has been dormant for more than a year.

Here are two favorites:
• Ozymandias by Shelley, and
• Ozymandias (now forgotton), by Smith, who later changed the title to the much catchier On A Stupendous Leg of Granite, Discovered Standing by Itself in the Deserts of Egypt, with the Inscription Inserted Below.
