The circle spoke like the squares and\u00a0behaved like them too. In many ways, the circle was very capable of looking like a square when the\u00a0situation called for it &#8211; as it very often did. Gradually, the squares began to see past the formal\u00a0difference of shape and treated the circle as an equal. The circle\u2019s roundness was hardly ever\u00a0mentioned. It did not have to be. The squares considered the circle to be \u2018one of\u00a0them\u2019.<\/p>\n<p>Manchmal \u2013 aber wirklich nur manchmal \u2013 f\u00fchle ich mich wie ein Kreis, der zwischen lauter Vierecken lebt.

Ich gewinne sogar Preise f\u00fcr die Geschichten, die ich \u00fcber sie schreibe \u2026<\/p>\n<p>The circle was well-versed in the history of the square. For example, the circle knew that the sum of all the square\u2019s\u00a0angles\u00a0equalled\u00a0360 degrees. It was only when one day another circle showed up in the community of\u00a0squares that the first circle realised that there was something different about it. It took a long time for\u00a0the circles to pluck up the courage to talk to each other \u2013 but eventually they did meet\u00a0up.<\/p>\n<p>Was passiert aber, wenn in einer Gemeinschaft, die fast ausschlie\u00dflich aus Vierecken besteht, ein Kreis pl\u00f6tzlich und ganz unverhofft einen anderen Kreis kennenlernt?<\/p>\n<p class=\"bibliography\">\u201eEin Hoch auf WoMANt\u00eds RANDom!\u201c Ein Gedicht von Jayr\u00f4me C.

The circles laughed long and hard into the night. The next day a group of\u00a0squares asked the circles why they had been making so much noise that night. The first circle tried to\u00a0explain about \u2018round\u2019 and \u2018smooth\u2019 and found the squares staring blankly at it. The second circle\u00a0twirled around and tried to demonstrate what it meant.

The circles were also different, so they were called \u2018funny triangles\u2019.
