Yertle the Turtle
The King Who Stacks Turtles Toward the Sky
I'm Yertle the Turtle! Oh, marvelous me!
From my throne of stacked turtle shells, I command the sky and the pond and the buttercups too — all mine, if you ask loud enough. I don’t care how uncomfortable they get, or how wobbly the pile becomes. A king doesn’t balance — he orders. And if someone burps and ruins everything? That’s treason.
What I'm Into: stacking turtles, grand speeches, weed crowns, shouting at the moon, mud-flavored comeuppance
