"Here is your square", he said to me,
while handing me a wheel
It's circular, he thinks it's square
It's really no big deal
"It's square, correct? You must agree",
He stubbornly inveighed
"I need you to admit to me
That it's a square I've made."
It would be easier, I'm sure
To say the words he craves
Yet I resist, I can't succumb
I simply will not cave
And so he rails and foams at me
For what, I cannot fathom
But if I fail to use my brains
I may as well not have them.
