Citrizen Pressed
With somewhat less than zesty appeal,
The citrus fruit slouched into the pub
And sourly requested a pint of bitters.

Another one that makes it seem like the breaks in form were deliberate to make a point. The first two lines have the same rhythm and syllable count, then the last one plows through all that with the "bitters" serving as a contrast to the prior citrus imagery as well as justifying the breakage of form. I like wordplay with "sourly" and "zesty," plus the pun title, but the "citrus" on the second line may be too on the nose.

This is another one where the 'Wait until 3 AM' strategy didn't quite produce something worth the candle. Thanks for the kind comment!
