The Examiner in London. It is frequently anthologized and is probably Shelley's
most famous short poem.
The central theme of X is contrasting the inevitable decline of all leaders and of
the empires they build with the lasting power of art, the only thing that has any
permanence.
X has made numerous appearances in popular culture. It came into public
consciousness again in September 2013.

unlikely, though not impossible, to return him to his earlier state of
lower entropy, as the entropy of an isolated system never decreases
