MOTHERS OF THE MOVEMENT

#MothersOfTheMovement on stage
Had the look of tigers caged
Shared pain publicly
In full view of #DNC
Don’t have option to disengage

#MothersOfTheMovement on stage
Swallowed barely concealed rage
All lost a child
But bravely smiled
Used this 2 turn emotional page

#MothersOfTheMovement on stage
Could’ve vanished, but chose to stay
Don’t want credit
Or a sympathy edit
To join this club, a heavy price paid

#MothersOfTheMovement on stage
Some mighty deep waters to wade
Put the guns down
Keep kids above ground
Not the time to play Political games 

#MothersoftheMovement on stage
Worth of this image hard to gauge
Some see vindication
Others see exploitation
Value of this meeting revealed with age
