Thumbs Hitchhike, Up or down From the crown. Salute, refute, Gesture, molester. They’re handy, Can make you randy. Without them: There is no plan B. Don’t you see? All you owe to glee, Your claims to be free, The ability to sip tea, Belongs to one appendage. No need to feel glum. You have a thumb! Even if it’s numb, It’ll help you eat plums. In abs…

One on Won By: Devon L Phaneuf (7.11.2020) With personality wavering, Every bite he is savoring. “What is artificial flavoring?” ...He asks, with brain laboring. “Is the mind man made?” “Like the cards we trade, In the games we’ve played?” ...heavy are the thoughts he weighed. “A base is a place, (This is certainly the case), But also cosmetic: for…

Conceptual Notion Machine With gears it grinds. It's ears they find, Ideas in mind. A scene not blind. Hand over hand, It conjures the land. Of shores, a strand, Of time; of sand. Head over heels For life it kneels (With gears, and wheels): It's self reveals! Hear here! It jeers. Their there! It veers. Now arriving in tears, Through fluid it peers.…

Spectacular Vernacular By: Devon Lee Phaneuf (7.30.2020) A centrifugal horn or bugle, Makes a sound in the room around, Hits a wall (which we call the bound), Bounces back to find its center. With an ear to the ground he listens... To hear an echo...a resound. Through a molten mantle it uproars, “I am the core!!!” “The very origin of this world, Wh…

Mechanimal Thingdom: Part I By Devon Phaneuf Default is an instinct, codified, identified, and signified in time as a pervasive, invasive, investigation on what things define as evasive. Horizons a league ahead have their attention with all eyes-on; tenacious for catharsis are things denied access to reas-on. A thing looks into itself, and exclaims…

Jack of All Trades…Master of Pun By: Devon Phaneuf (4.19.2019) One who saw two three times for five or six different ways to find seven while he ate nine tin sandwiches. A man…a fable, A string un-strum, A pun-un-drum, A none solve able, A Teutonic harmonic, A phonic mnemonic, A semantic romantic, A dialectic eclectic, All things are connected, No …

Vision By: Devon Phaneuf What light from yonder window breaks? What fight o'er fonder men among snakes dost thou awake? The greatest epiphany of a man is for him to maintain that no thing is mundane and that he is to blame...for shame. Vision is the art of decision, for intention is the munition of invention...an arms race against attrition.…

RUSE by: Devon Phaneuf (12.17.2017) Rejoice! O'er the communion of your own confusion. Long tales rust nails of truth a-fixed once to hold confession (in a booth!). Truth?! Truth you say has no proof? Twas God who gave life, and the noose? Find you no amusement in my voice? What about life as a choice? No, No, No child; let not your mind wander so …

D Generation by D.L. Phaneuf 3.21.2020 Can poetry evolve to survive in 2021 without a sound board? Without a number from 1 to 10 on the Billboard? Are folks too interested in what gender, race, party, creed, or color is next to claim to have been molested? What human was recently arrested? Where next to divert ourselves detested? Distraction is def…

Man:Kind A numerological sonnet by D.L. Phaneuf 1.11.2018 (11 lines, 11 syllables per line, 101 words, AABBCCCDDEE) All that you see laid out before you (and me), Is not trickery, no act of forgery. Rest assured: my efforts I make not lightly. In this world, men remain who live politely. You will find my intent is far beyond kind. From my mind: you…

Just for the record By D.L. Phaneuf 12.10.2018 May the grooves prove not smooth such that sound they do not lose for my ears to hear and not refuse. Be it blues, jazz infused, or progressive one-two-glues, hit me with a tried and true sonic view; loaded with hues of do-do-ta-do's stewed together for me to sip like brew. My how the time is few, that…

Dr. Seuss’s 116th by D.L. Phaneuf 3.2.2020 Happy Birthday to the Doctor of whose is who says. The man who reminds us that it is we who chooses who wins or looses. With words whose uses should not confuse us, yet instead induces miles of smiles. And while the innocent ones and 'twoses' he easily amuses with gentle stories of earthly bruises, I belie…

Measure by D.L. Phaneuf 6.16.2020 Taken by parts or wholes. Heat evolved by coals. Life to make one’s soul. Dirt within a hole. Water to break the levee, Weight to make it heavy, Space enough for room, Perfection of a vacuum. City within a block, Boats moored at the dock, Rivers once that flowed, Waves without a node. Friction needed to grip, Surfa…
