POSTING BLUES<\/p>\n

by Bill Kochman<\/p>\n

12-14-2023<\/p>\n

I really work so very hard,
\nTo pump out God’s Word,
\nBut I’m not even surprised,
\nIf you still have not heard.<\/p>\n

It doesn’t matter what I do,
\nSeeing my posts you don’t,
\nExpect networks to be fair?
\nWell, sorry, but they won’t.<\/p>\n

They all push peons’ posts,
\nTo the very end of the line,
\nAnd if you look really hard,
\nIt is where you’ll find mine.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile all of the elite,
\nAre given very best billing,
\nYou can get a blue check if,
\nPaying cash you’re willing.<\/p>\n

Yet even with a little check,
\nYour spot will not change,
\nI still remain quite invisible,
\nMan, it’s so mighty strange.<\/p>\n

Well, at this point, I am lost,
\nThere’s no way to get views,
\nAnd that is why I really am,
\nFeeling those posting blues.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
