"Chosen Path"
I used to wish --
HIM COT'd
It seemed so --
Appealingly ideal
He'd go away
Receive treatment
Perhaps a cure --
Would so follow
"In a perfect world"
NO LONGER
Does he appear --
Sick and pathetic
Pathetic and disgusting
Disgusting and poor
NO LONGER
There's no empathy
No more inkling --
Of sympathy
No lingering shred --
Of patience
His behaviors --
Over the years
Have finished --
The punch
His banter is beyond --
Pathetically delusional
Nauseatingly disturbed
NO LONGER
Does it matter
He's chosen --
His depraved path
He has chosen --
Every singular moment
He's reveled in it
He has fought --
For his right
To be a mockery --
A man despised!
Gnawing at this --
Option for years
I NO LONGER
Wish him COT'd
I wish him erased
A solo suicide
Where I can see
His debased remains!
