Scuffed Rail at the Yard

Scuffs marked the yard rail like quiet commas.
Spike did not invent a villain. He looked. Suzy looked with him.
Clue one: scuffs sat at calf-shoulder height, not kelpie height.
Clue two: soft hair clung in the groove — someone leaned, then left.
Clue three: the latch still clicked true — the job was lean, not escape.
Adventure Cap wanted a chase. Thinking Cap habit said gather, then guess once.
Tools reminded: look for marks, compare, check. Tools did not fix alone.
Suzy wiped the rail soft and thanked the yard with a quiet check.
Kids: if a rail looks scuffed, look who uses that height before you blame.
