The User

Sadly, there are about as many users in circulation
As providers although some providers are used by more than one user instigator.
And how do providers become providers for these users -
The reasons for that are insidious - sometimes victims of false accusers.

Users feast on providers like leeches and threats and false accusations
Are thrown about at the unconscionable users whims and defamation.
Whatever serves the users' desires, no matter how far fetched,
We're not speaking of truth or rationality - just control so wretched.

You've never died an emotional death until this leech has attached to you.
When you're dealing with a user - you seriously have a problem. What to do
Evades you. For dealing with a leech is a slippery situation;
You dance the dance of life and death in many configurations.

You're damned if you do and damned if you won't.
Short of doing a disappearing act, they absolutely don't
Turn loose voluntarily. You plan your strategy and draw up your escape plans.
If you ever escape from the user's blood sucking tactics, you're a hero in our land.
