SHADOW BANNED <\/p>\n

by Bill Kochman<\/p>\n

01-14-2023<\/p>\n

No one likes to be shadow banned,
\nYet I am banned for so very long,
\nWell it was about five years ago,
\nWhen I realized something’s wrong.<\/p>\n

Oh I was sharing left and right,
\nIndeed, post after post after post,
\nBut no matter how hard I’ve worked,
\nA few dozen see me at the very most.<\/p>\n

Yes, it can be so very discouraging,
\nWhen we’re trying to sow God’s seed,
\nWe do our best to get out the truth,
\nBut so few will even see it to read.<\/p>\n

It is no secret some in government,
\nScheme with liberal social networks,
\nDoing their best to hide our memes,
\nGod please deal with all those jerks.<\/p>\n

Resorting to tactics so very unfair,
\nThey’re just creatures of the night,
\nTrying to spin things their own way,
\nFrantically running from God’s Light.<\/p>\n

But He sees all and knows the score,
\nThose folks to powder will be ground,
\nAs for us, we have nothing to fear,
\nBecause to Heaven we will be bound.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
