Off Putting

the mothers against
                the Man’s men
                     putting
                  perspective 
             in humanity again

Not the first time women demonstrated more courage than men, but thank you for reminding us if one doesn't stand on their own two feet, they may lost their footing! Aloha! Rico

Yes I did! That was brilliant. Perhaps the wall of mothers should try that...

i guess so... hadn't heard of them... actually MADD was a very effective organization of mothers, but you don't find those kind of mothers in grassroots citizens organizations today. (Mothers Against Drunk Driving). Smiles, Gershon

Is this based on the 'Wall of Moms' that is in Portland now? (cause that would be awesome, but it's awesome either way!)
