Pipsqueak Geek, Speedway Monday (villanelle)

Cry when you laugh, cry when you speak
That’s what you hear them say
Trying hard to make her voice meek

Although this life can make one weak
There is always a brighter day
Cry when you laugh, cry when you speak

Don’t view the world as bleak
But let her live her life as a cliché
Trying hard to make her voice meek

Not everyone should belong to a clique
You are every version of the sky: do not downplay
Cry when you laugh, cry when you speak

Believe in her for she does seek
To find her place and not stray
Trying hard to make her voice meek

Let us go down to that boutique
Before this goes away
Cry when you laugh, cry when you speak
Trying hard to make her voice meek
