pentametric paradigms @ work

ode to the weekend  

Monday    
Monday is the day    
weekends lose their sway.    
what an awful fray,    
just to break away    
from the cabaret!    
    
Tuesday    
Tuesday, gone the edge    
of lethargic sledge.    
Monday-Wednesday wedge    
brings a vibrant pledge    
from my lame cortège.    
   
Wednesday    
Wednesday, middle week,    
perfectly oblique:    
come the joys i seek,    
with a brief sneak peek    
of weekend mystique.    
   
Thursday    
Thursday, working late,    
too much on my plate.    
gosh, how much i hate    
this eternal wait.    
i should delegate!    
   
Friday    
just a few more hours    
gets me through these doors.    
Friday night for snores,    
Sat‘day morn for chores,    
then i’m once more yours!
