PTA Moms

I am constantly amazed by the
omnipresent PTA moms
Decked out in the designer fitness wear
That frames their mother hen personalities
To fit the multi-million dollar ad campaigns
Interspersed throughout parenting magazines
And estrogen talk shows
But when the afternoon comes
there are no jagged lines of salt left over from sweat
Drawing maps of champion effort on their shirts
No dirt on the shoes singing the praises of battles hard fought
No odor of accomplishment
There are only the women mulling around
With their sports drinks
Designer sunglasses
And voices singing their own praises.
