Some fated are marked
by an uncommon fey air
deemed by folks as weird...

A close-up photo of an old, leather-bound book, probably a dictionary. The cover is worn and textured, suggesting age.

A word came 'round, the other day,
As strange as strange can be, they say.
"Selcouth!" quoth I, with puzzled frown,
"The oddest word in any town!"
It means that things are queer and rare,
Yet, is itself a something there!
