CHOOSE LIFE PODCAST: Choose Life Podcast looking at artists, musicians, poets and writers and exploring their work to see what insight they can offer us in today's divided world. Today's episode is the poem 'Ozymandias' by the great English poet Percy Bysshe Shelley - England's lost radical. The poem is about Egyptian Pharaoh Rameses II (Ozymandias being the Greek name for the Pharaoh). The poem is a commentary by Shelley on the nature of power, ego and the ravages of time that strips away the pretence of immortality and the egotistical foolishness of authoritarian leaders.
