Jules Verne Poem by Douglas Scotney
Jules Verne
'Je verne' means 'I polish,
gloss, veneer, cover up and varnish'.
Can it mean 'I disguise'? *
I wonder if Jules dumped his real name for that.
'What other names did he try? '
Jules Rends Parfait (Jules Perfects) ?
Jules Attife (Jules Tarts Up) ?
Did Jules consider 'je mens', 'I lie'?
* Can 'Jules verne' mean
'Jules defends, protects'?

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
16.7.21. The film of Around the World in 80 Days was the first film I ever saw - at the Strand Theatre, Toowoomba when I was almost 4 years old.As no evidence exists that Verne is not his real name, most likely it's meaning is Jules the Defender.
