Description               the poem comes
and then the good title comes (and goes)
and then the blank comes
and then
and then
and then
              the repetition comes
and then the repetition comes
and then the girlfriend comes
  saying "You repeat yourself too much."
and then you come
  to realize
  whatever it is you're realizing
  this week
and then the anger comes
and then the compromise comes
and then
              the poem comes
and then the repetition comes

Redundancy, I think, is the key word here. Had it not been an integral part of your poem, I wouldn't have resisted the urge to rip my eyes out. But I read it to the end, and I must say its an intriguing piece. Written in a style I don't usually use or see myself, but nonetheless, I like.
