Answer:

The central idea of the poem Ozymandias, is that everything in the universe, no matter how enormous and valuable, is still ephemeral. Those who deem themselves as superior than other beings, must know that one fine day, they are going to be forgotten and the monuments they build to tell the world how strong they are, are going to decay by nature's forces, and the only thing that will remain is the deeds they've done for others.
