  1. Its not a shout of victory, nor chest puffed out wide with glowing pride; it is a crouch – small and helpless…so helpless, aren’t we all?

  2. I crouched down behind the couch, desperate not to be seen. To be seen is to lose all chance of escape. From further into the house I can hear raised voices and smashing plates. They’re fighting again. Of course.

  3. Crouch was a famous basketball referee out here in Australia. One of the best.
    Crouch was a famous European soccer player. One of the best.
    I don’t find it very comfortable to crouch as it is somewhat painful on my legs. Too much basketball when I was younger and now I’m not in the same shape I ws.

  4. I crouched near the tree and saw a magical rabbit looking at me from between two bushes. I ran after it, but it ran up a tree. “What should I do?” I thought
    I climbed after it, of course.
    “Magical rabbit, give me a sweetie!” I said.
    It didn’t.

  6. crouch, hidden in the grass, tall blades hiding a majestic beast. lightly, hindlegs twitch, tail whipping back and forth patiently, suddenly, like springs, leaping, through the air, tackling another to the ground. friendly growls, whimpers, and triumphant again. lover caught.

  7. crouch end…possibly a nice place to live but too expensive. N8 may be the way to go

  8. I crouched. And for a moment, I remembered that I was wearing an ill-fitted pants. What am embarrassing moment that was!

  9. I feel myself being rolled, scrunched, pounded. My bones and tiny bloody vessels blooming into one as my body forms into a ball. Pain. Tears. Sweat and blood. Fear are all that my eyes are bounded by and my hands shaking and dripping with sweat. Nothingness, numbness from my ear drums to my tongue to the very balls of my feet. I miss feeling strong enough to leap out of this fatal position, I miss having that very strength that pushed my ever muscle to an extensive powerful person. I miss not being the little girl in the body of a little monster that seems to always crouch.

  10. I crouch down
    there’s a cliche in there somewhere
    you’re waiting for a slap or sound of skin
    contact alight with anger and frustration and
    years of pent up sorrow somewhere deep inside
    but there’s nothing……

  11. crouching tiger, hidden dragon. that’s a movie, a movie I’ve never seen. I heard it’s good though. It also reminds me of a child, or camping lighting a fire, or playing in the sand or drawing with chalk: typically you crouch in those positions. Crouch rhymes with couch.

  16. In baseball you crouch to catch a ball, when youre tracking something you crouch when you’ve found something that may be favorable. Crouching is a sign of attention, intensity, and interest. Recieving. Crouching to hide from something.

  17. I tend to do things like this when I’m feeling anything from sad to angry. I crouch and walk towards a mirror I have against my wall. It’s interesting and funny to see the faces I make when I stare into my own eyes. I wonder what faces I make when someone else stares into my eyes.

  18. If he crouched just right, here in the shadow, they couldn’t see him. His muscles ached but he would stay. He needed to be here, to hear this, to see this. If they wanted to ruin his life, he was going to watch them do it.
    The best part was that neither of them knew that he sat in the shadows, watching, waiting. When they slipped, and he knew they would, he would already know. They wouldn’t get to watch his heart break.

  19. i was 5, or maybe 6, somewhere buried deep in my grandmas garden, amongst azaleas and other prickly bushes whose name escaped my mind. I was hiding, from something. From some shadowy creation of my infantile mind. I had just read where the wild things are and it was getting dark. My mind was exploding with fear.

  20. Subtle, scared. Hiding from the world that lies beneath the feet of an individual who knows not what they are. Unsuccessful .

  21. She crouched beneath the brush, bow drawn, arrow laced within the strings. The stag was stark white, its horns magnificent and tall. Taking the animal from the earth would not effect the forests life cycle, Orin was certain of that. She would respect the creature even after death, the elders taught her kind to treat nature with such deserved customs. Pulling back on the arrow, Orin prepared to release the sharp edged point aiming for the swiftest death to the noble beast.

  22. I tend to do these things when I get nervous, sad, or angry. I crouch and walk towards the mirror. Why? Maybe to watch myself and the things I do when I stare at myself with a certain emotion or expression on my face. The things I notice when I don’t want to notice at all.

  23. She crouched beneath the brush, bow drawn, arrow laced with the strings. The stag was stark white, its horns magnificent and tall. Taking the animal from the earth would not effect its life cycle, Orin was sure of that.

  28. Crouching involves bending your knees and resting your behind on your heels. You are lowering your body to the ground, usually as a resting method or to retrieve an object below your arms reach. Also to reach objects that are under something or in something.

  31. when i think of crouching i think of a child playing hide and go seek. i think of summertime and innocence. and not even caring about getting dirty or getting stuck in a bush. when you’re small and naive, you can fit in small spaces. crouching down to fit into this big world.

  35. whenever i see this word it makes me wonder if they are talking about the thing in between your legs or when you sit on your knees. because they are very confusing and easy to mix up. for the first 12 years of my life i called the two opposite of the real defintion. whooops. ill blame my mother for that one.
