Reset Actions and Precautions

Whinging utterly pointless, act
To change the perception you project
Cursing utterly uncouth, exercise tact with the contact
Whom you desire to reject with the respect 

They least expect even when they suspect
Their exploitative tendencies piss
You off big time as you ought to protect
The best asset you own even if you don’t diss

Repellent contacts from whom you gain
Pain and strain as they pursue self serving agenda
But claim they’d do their level best to regain
The trust you once offered despite their utter disregard of the gender

Balance which in the new millennium
Projects fairness and awareness
Of the high premium
Socialites put on the happiness

Parties to a social contract deserve
In the way they die for each other
Sacrificing without reserve
Ensuring on each other they lump no sea of bother.
