EXPOSURE EXPOSÉ
by Bill Kochman
04-09-2023
Watch out for the social networks,
Exposure is the name of the game,
They will entice you different ways,
So you will try to reach your aim.
Yes, pay for that verified account,
Spend loads of money on your ad,
I’m sorry to be the one to tell you,
But, my friend, you have been had.
Yes, I know what you really want,
To be seen and to reach the top,
But I know from my experience,
It’s all just one big deceptive flop.
The networks are majorly rigged,
They give advantage to the elite,
So to have your posts even seen,
Is nearly one big impossible feat.
Regardless of how often you post,
And though try as hard as you can,
You’re not going to get anywhere,
If you are victim of a shadow ban.
You’ll needlessly spin your wheels,
As you burn money along the way,
Yet despite your best endeavors,
Few will see what you have to say.
Those networks all play favorites,
They are two-tier systems you see,
They have got persons of interest,
Then there’s peons like you & me.
Their system is just simply unfair,
You really do not stand a chance,
But like a fool you cling to hope,
While you continue in their dance.
