The Horrible Square Peg

The square peg
Stood immortal
Between the walls,
Of mortality's sins
Its beck and calls.
It sinned sincerely
In the virtuous mile
In awe and wonder
They admired its style!
Books were borrowed
Of heretics and saints,
Made diagrams of
Broad minds, pea-brains.
Hired the scholar
On a humongous errand
To write a word
The hasn't been read!
It payed the minstrel
To sing a song
Of unrepaired truth
Ugly oblong.
It was so painful
For mankind to try
To look its ruckus
In the eye.
They banished the peg
For keeping alive
The spirit it refuged
That was supposed to die!
