June 18 - Legs (Late entry)
There should be a word for words that sound the way they feel. Words like slither, and slime, scuttle and scramble.

All of us have our senses cross-wired to a certain extent. The sight of all those legs brings with it the memory of how they sound, and feel. Even though it's just an image, a bunch of pixels, the powerful memories and emotions triggered by that image can leave a mark for hours, even days.

There should be a word for words that sound the way they feel. Like shiver, and prickle, and shudder.
