Polygon Command Issue

I'm trying to use the polygon command to draw a pattern, but the lines don't come out correct. 

Using: POLYGON CNT 0 (0.3085 0) (0.3415 0) (0.3475 0.05) (0.3475 0.85) (0.3415 0.9) (0.3085 0.9) (0.3025 0.85) (0.3025 0.05) (0.3085 0);

I get: POLYGON CNT 0 (0.3085 0) (0.3415 0) (0.3475 0.05) (0.3475 0.85) (0.3415 0.9) (0.3085 0.9) (0.3025 0.85) (0.3025 0.05) (0.3085 0);POLYGON CNT 0 (0.3085 0) (0.3415 0) (0.3475 0.05) (0.3475 0.85) (0.3415 0.9) (0.3085 0.9) (0.3025 0.85) (0.3025 0.05) (0.3085 0);

The lines aren't in the right place at all. What can I do to fix this?

What you are experiencing is the effect of the chosen wire bend style adding in additional vertices which you don't expect to be there. You need to set it to draw straight point to point lines before starting the polygon to get this to work. When you do, you get the following:

Note the addition of the SET WIRE_BEND 2; which comes before your POLYGON command.
