Example:

\version "2.16.1"

samplePath =
  #'((moveto 0 0)
     (lineto -1 1)
     (lineto 1 1)
     (lineto 1 -1)
     (curveto -5 -5 -5 5 -1 0)
     ;(closepath)
     )

\markup {
        %\override #'(filled . #t)
        %\override #'(line-join-style  . bevel) % 'miter 'round
        \override #'(line-cap-style . butt)  %'round 'square
  \path #0.25 #samplePath
}
