Another rave about everyone wanting to 'cure' people who are different. This time in the form of a poem. It is against conformism. It is about anyone who is different in any way.
The Square Hole
A square peg, living in a world where all the pegs are round
felt out of place in every place where rounded pegs abound.
They filed away his angles, smoothed every edge;
they made of him an ordinary, smoothly rounded peg.
One day they saw a wondrous sight that terrified each soul
for there before their eyes was an incredible SQUARE HOLE!!
The pegs were all confused and lost; one wept on the floor
For nowhere in the world were square pegs any more.
