Tuesday
If I were to be a day of the week,
I would be a Tuesday
Not a Monday, bright and yellow
Understanding that today “there be dragons here”
and we must be Ready to conquer, ready to claim,
ready to fight
Not Wednesday, Orange and steady
Containing a consistency that reminds us
we can make it, we will make it
And not the vibrant green Thursday
Full of promise, anticipation
And the hope of what’s to come
But nor am I the explosive Friday
Dark, and passionate, dedicated
To the thrill and fervor of life
Or a Silver Saturday
Slick and slippery with the idea
Of adventure but that holds no guarantees
Yet still I cannot be Sunday
Muted Gold with warm mornings
and laid back afternoons but always
With the lingering remembrance of tomorrow
No, I am Tuesday
I am faded red
I am the waiting day
The looked over bridge of
What’s now, what’s next
Stuck forever in some delicate limbo
I am the stepping stone
The illusive day floating in and out
Behind the scenes, behind the week
I am tuesday
