Wednesday's lament

         ... green turns grey at sunset

6 I dress in Sunday's red
8 or pretty-in-pink on Tuesdays.
0 Lonesome blues of Friday come each week; but,
6 Yellow cheers up Mondays.

6 I'm not some messed-up clown,
8 can't turn my smile upside down,
0 and dare not strut in tan like officers.
6 I've never been The Man.

Notes: I left the syllable count to show structure. There's some rhythm, rhyme and spare alliteration. The Thai colors of the week: red, yellow, pink, green/grey, orange, blue, purple. I wrote this on a purple day.
