The Plaid Dress
by Edna St. Vincent Millay
Strong sun, that bleach
The curtains of my room, can you not render
Colourless this dress I wear?鈥?br> This violent plaid
Of purple angers and red shames; the yellow stripe
Of thin but valid treacheries; the flashy green of kind deeds done
Through indolence high judgments given here in haste;
The recurring checker of the serious breach of taste?
No more uncoloured than unmade,
I fear, can be this garment that I may not doff;
Confession does not strip it off,
To send me homeward eased and bare;
All through the formal, unoffending evening, under the clean
Bright hair,
Lining the subtle gown. . .it is not seen,
But it is there.

the theme is self or redemption. The persona wants to be a new person, like a white clothes, so that all the colors (either anger, shame, treacheries and even good deeds disappear) But he knows that's not possible(no nore uncolored than unmade) and confessing for his crimes does not make him feel better, that's why he wants to be a new person.
