NO TRACTION OR SATISFACTION

by Bill Kochman

08-27-2024

As many know, the Stones sang,
I can't get no satisfaction,
But my problem is even worse.
Because I can't get no traction.

It really doesn't matter what I do,
I am always spinning my wheels,
If you are censored by networks,
You know exactly how this feels.

We all work so hard every day,
To pump out God's holy Word,
But because we are restricted,
So few people have even heard.

It just seems all network gurus,
Have sympathy for the ole Devil,
But as for us dear Christian folks,
The playing field is just not level.

Now to be honest, I'm gettin' old,
I'm really no Jumpin' Jack Flash,
So unless my situation improves,
I may throw this app in the trash.

Note: Please note that I am NOT a Rolling Stones fan. I liked a few of their songs in my younger days over fifty years ago before I got serious with the Lord. But I thought that some of my older friends might find it a bit humorous that I mention three Stones songs in this anti-social networks poem.
