The Many Talents Of Boyce Brandon Harris

rew4er2nail

Sparks of inspiration fueled frisson building, crafting,

designing, a gamut of glorious finished products, that

offset bereft reaction dad experienced at workplace.

Seventh heaven for him found in the cellar at "Glen

Elm", where freelance dadaist artist, this detail

potential heresy if management got wind of dough

less than enthusiastically firstly sprouted out

(then whispered down the ally) far from domain dollars

doled re: paycheck. When off hours prevailed, thee

 

extremely adroit, deft, galvanized phalanges (tethered

at the wrist) wrought living, fascinating breathing

blueprints (formerly figments) alive. Thy paternal

parent poured heart and soul into self concocted

projects summoned forth from lathe as an artisan,

 

whose abundant treasured trove housed innovative

creations (now long since dashed to smithereens,

when the faded glory sans 324 level road defeated

against wrecking ball minus Miley Cyrus).

Now, he evinces considerably less inconsolably

distraught bereavement since securing love from

 

a lovely lady, unlike me mum as night and day),

idle dextrous hands remain retired of my

octogenarian widower papa, no longer

plies adeptness commanding manual co

ordination once coaxing finished product. Emotional

grief wrought via death of Harriet (the bride he

wedded well nigh 'bout a half century in duration),

and remained faithfully married, her death

(more'n a dozen years ago), viz grim reaper stoled, snatched,

snagged his loving mate. Twas for her eyes

he contrived, finessed, harnessed his ingenious joy.

Away from tireless desk job i.e.,which obliged

swearing allegiance, fealty, loyalty within complex

edifice, where obsolete quaint rubric, schematic,

thematic mantra "We Bring Good Things to Life,"

met with gnawing, emerging, chomping

objectionable quandary. The sedentary station

exhausted, milked usurped mental energies

linkedin hinged upon the figurative linchpin

sans contractual mandates. Steady employment

obliged conferring, forsaking, invoking credo,

ethos, hierarchical jujitsu marrying obligatory

penance requisite at General Electric, (which

 

daily tasks borne with gravitas witness

to crunching numbers vis a vis from gifted

mathematical application, and scientific mind).

Thus decades on end, my father remained

steadfast on this straight and true decree,

whereby dad (analogously applied his

Semitic nose to the whet grindstone)

applying inherent and learned math

ematical/ scientific principles respectively.

He made excellent use of mechanical en

gineering degree (earned free of charge

at Brooklyn City College viz Veterans benefit).
