Allegory
As our graphy shows, Trends are trending.
This is good. Yet, nevertheless,
the destination of the trendlings
is not simple to assess.
As of now, the Uppers are upping
and the downers are droobling down
excepting on alternate Thursdays
when it works the other way round.
And there occasionally are occasions
when some Upper comes a cropper
and bottoms out at the bottom.
Then....
some Bottomer is the Topper.
Consequently, on the other hand,
I believe this can be said:
you'll be wise if you step gently
whilst you tread on your neighbor's head.
-Dr. Seuss
Mack's burp
Lord Of The Flies
It happens when Yertle wants to build his stack of turtles even higher, and it comes from the turtle at the very bottom of the stack.
The burb symbolizes rebellion, and it topples Yertle's dictatorship.
The moon
This is what makes a dictator mad. No one can control everything and reaching for things they can't control is generally what leads to a dictators defeat.
The moon symbolizes everything over which Yertle exerts no control, and this is what leads to his defeat in the end.
"There's nothing, no, NOTHING, that's higher than [him]! "
Yertles Throne
Symbolizes all of labor that's gotten Yertle to where he wants to be. Yertle never appreciates this labor.
The throne-stack can also represent Yertle's ambition, because for him the stack is never high enough and he is never satisfied.
