Bubbles that Burst – Who are the bubbles?

Bubbles that Burst – 
Who are the bubbles?

“Two bubbles found they had rainbows on their curves.
They flickered out saying:
"It was worth being a bubble, just to have held that rainbow thirty seconds.”
― Carl Sandburg


Bubbles are bound to burst. There is no doubt about it.  But  bubbles have  not understood as in the quote given above and rejoicing on the rainbows in them.   Bubbles and myths that are going to explode.  There was a conglomeration of people who were held for fear of not allowed to rule if they are not one group. The group elects a person to show them the way based on his expertise in economics.  But he was willing to surrender to persons who had no knowledge of that and also on other things.  Thus he had to compromise on everything and he never felt that he was the custodian of anything that was going on, in the group. Thus he disowned things of discomfort and to complain of group compulsions. Anyone with the conscience would have left the leadership but this gentleman was clinging to his leadership and not performing including his own area of expertise to bring chaos and a convenient excuse here also to blame external and global environment for his own failures.  Group members taking his inability to control them took advantage and had the gumption to say that with this man’s approval only everything has been done, as he was a spectator to all loots that was going on among the group.  He has to naturally face the wrath of the people as he failed even in his area of expertise and failed to be a custodian of the group too and by every act proved that he was really not a custodian.  Baby members too started calling him names and even observed as Nonsense the custodian’s decision.  The custodian did not have the temerity to even say that nonsense is better than nuisance.  I am reminded of the saying: Nothing is better than nonsense and nonsense is better than nuisance.   In fact his doing of nothing was better than nonsense too. Even here, persons in the group taking pride of their special status of defenders of the group had grease all over their face and when a baby member called their collective work as nonsense.   Some group members hence spoke as they like and get away with it and the pity was the very same people’s help was sought by the custodian namesake to get defend himself for all omissions and commissions. Neither the custodian nor the so called advocates defending the custodian, realized they are like bubbles and will explode any time, sooner or later.  Enjoying the rainbow, they are in a state of ecstasy and do not know that they are in murkier waters.  Murkier waters get changed by the people once in a while and newer waters will fill emptying the old ones. Where will be the bubbles?  The bubbles are bound to burst.  In their anxiety, that water is going to be changed, the bubbles started blabbering everything they could see as themselves and called everything the “bubble”.  

Will the people change the waters?
