Poem

The hidden circle
Serves as a good shelter
For unknown secrets
Each of us hides some
We also play a role
To protect ourselves
And try how to live together
In a hidden circle
Are our real treasures
That we cherish
Or sometimes hate
The hidden circle is not a fake

Make a irregular 5 sided polygon connecting the 5 dots (externally)
Find the 5 madiatrixes of the five sides of the polygon
All 5 mediatrixes will connect in the center of the circle that unites the points
