Abandonment

Abandonment is beautiful, serene
It must be; I’m abandoned all the time
[Insert iambic words that sound obscene]
Abandonment is kind of like slant rhyme
I hope she finds a guy who brings her joy
I hope she wins the race she values most
I hope she’s happy with our little boy
I hope she won’t succumb to my old ghost
And when her heart is ripped, right from her chest
By beautiful, serene abandonment
Obscenity will serve the purpose best
She’ll feel it in the poetry I sent
The beautiful serenity is mine
It’s perfect, like a couplet’s perfect rhyme.
