Ahh! Good one, Jayne...and it reminds me of it's "Sk" counterpart, "Sketchy," which I also love (and use far more often than I should).
And as per John's post, I was thinking of another short word that I adore -- "peep." It comes up in Shakespeare all the time, and I love it -- peeping out between Caesar's legs, for instance. It's so innocuous, and a strangely "cute" word, yet Shakespeare in particular often uses it in highly charged contexts.
