Tara cracked open a door & snuck into the old theatre. Sunlight softened via a dusty window illuminated the dark #wood stage, & marble trim.
Tara’s #jeans seemed incongruous with the #secouth aura the space still radiated; even so, she smiled. It was perfect.

She spent her life in service
Doing the job she was born to -
Unflinching, #secouth.
Her grandson spends his life
Disgracing his heritage
The epitome of uncouth.

#Secouth the cotton;
embroidery, sequin, pearls
stitched in. Who can wear
this slip made of an hour
before sunrise?

Weekend Hero
One fly Buick #Skylark
So #secouth in its mod style
Sweet #amber-colored
A plausible chick magnet
Blinding hormones are grateful

I am the journey of secouth
In the beginning
They believed I was mysterious
Over time I merged with uncouth
Now I’m just strange & unrefined

She gave a lasting impression after every tense situation. She faced it all head on with a #secouth a monk would envy. None knew where it came from, but none could outmaneuver her patience. No harsh words, only undeniable logic left her lips.

A dancer moves without
the constraint of gravity
her arms and legs
cut through the air
making generous arcs and loops
she could be a deer or antelope
she has such spring and dexterity
and grace

Gracefully gliding
all eyes are trained on her form
a noble #secouth

I watch the brownie mixture swirl in mouth-watering delight. Then the wait. They bake, rising to gooey, #secouth perfection. I juggle too-hot bites, lick sticky fingers, giggling at Gabe’s stuffed cheeks. Until one remains. The eternal question: who gets the last brownie?

Yard Sale
They sell themselves
in slivers—
a spine here, some flesh there.
Grin stapled in.
Secouth in the suit,
but hollow in the handshake.
Sloganed soul:
priced by the yard,
per clause,
per lie,
per nod.
Even vultures spit
the scraps.

Sworn Lake
In the gravy-lit hush
she pirouettes—
secouth,
a bullet ballet for a butcher’s sink.
Feather-song of pain,
bones screaming expletives.
Even the ducklings flinch—
grace, sometimes,
wears grease,
and
a
grimace.

"He'd had it since his youth, you'd never call him uncoouth, if a word could speak the truth, that word would be #secouth."
"#Secouth, you say, well, hey, no way. He may have manners and grace, written all over his lovely face, you just won't see it will yer, the man's a stone cold killer" #vss365

“I’ll tell you my favourite story about your mother taking this uncouth man & converting him to a #secouth uncle,” said Dan.
Mia giggled. “She wants feeding.” She took Kamaria to another room.
“Has Ari calmed down from us not phoning?” asked Tom.
“Jin’s job,” said Ava. #vss365

"How do we know who she is?" Whispered one rat in the ear of another as the guitar shimmered and the song reverberated around them. "She could be 4. She could be 12. She could be black. She could be white. She could be #secouth. She could be uncouth."
"She's unwritten," the other replied.

"He’s hidden the bomb in a bakery, Hatson"
"Geriarty?"
"Obviously"
"Which one Sholmes?*
" #Secouth Pastries & Co."
" I knew that croissant was flaky"
"The custard looked guilty too"
"What now?"
"We interrogate the eclair"
"To squeeze info?"
"Precisely"

Magnolia leaves in front of a garden and blue sky
the light inside pulsed
soft sounds caressing my heart
momentous event
hardness cracked and turned to snow
wind carried empathy's tune
