I like how it is both funny haha and funny ironic at once. You did a great job with the repeating lines--worked them well into the context of the poem, used them in different ways to vary meaning from strophe to strophe, and let them sort of expand the meaning of the poem from a narrative to some existential questions about love and fidelity. Could have been a throwaway paen to the form; you made it much more. You're good at this form stuff, you know?

...just like a terzanelle should be. Easy to read and panning out sensibly too. Bravo!

Probably one of the coolest ever terzanelles. And you know I love the terz! :)
