  17. A quotation from Joseph Addison

    “Censure,” says a late ingenious author, “is the tax a man pays for being eminent.” It is a folly for an eminent man to think of escaping it, and a weakness to be affected with it. All the illustrious persons of antiquity, and indeed of every age in the world, have passed through this fiery persecution. There is no defense against reproach but obscurity; it is a kind of concomitant to greatness, as satires and invectives were an essential part of a Roman triumph.

    Joseph Addison (1672-1719) English essayist, poet, statesman
    Essay (1711-06-26), The Spectator, No. 101

  31. Millard has tried to heed his father’s #reproach

    “You are weak, Millard. You are susceptible to the wiles of loose women and libation. You have no self-discipline,” his father had said in a searing lecture that May morning when he was summarily dispatched to Boston University to study economics.

    “Make something of yourself,” his father had said. “Prove you are worthy.”

    Millard could feel the heat on his face even after all these months.

    My god, and
    Literally so
    You’d think we
    Were Catholic
    The way you
    Monastically intone
    Project and hurl
    The improperia
    Like guided
    Munitions
    Sent to wound
    Subdue and silence
    You ever and
    Always however
    Beyond reproach
    Immaculate perfect
    Beautifully proper
    I used this knowing
    Both for and against you
    That time you
    Broke your hip
    Came to live with me
    Those half dozen months
    In periodic throes
    Of dementia I watched you
    Suffer delirium tremens
    Regain most of your mind
    I cooked for
    Cleaned up after
    Ferried you to
    Appointments
    Guided you through
    Various therapies
    You’d get your back up
    Willfully from time to time
    I would need only remind you
    How smart you were
    How elegant and graceful
    How accomplished
    You’d shape shift
    Right before our eyes
    Recalcitrant to accommodating
    Puffed up and swelling
    Effrontery pointing outward
    Ingested transmuted
    Alchemically became
    A magic potion
    By all the gods
    You were something

    In the shadows, the cold is remorseless and
    Full of reproach. 'Go away,' it says, 'and
    Find the sun on this crisp morning. Don't
    Linger here in the dark. Go, and leave me
    Alone.' I can't find the way out of this
    Forest of melancholy, and don't want the
    Light to find my eyes and blind me with
    The defined and sharp contours of reality.
    I sit on the snow by the icy tree, and close
    My eyes and ears. No more...

    On the bed, old man's morning stretches,
    I close my eyes, and the years wind back,
    All those empty days, and the board games
    On top of the wardrobe. I reproach myself
    For all the lost hours and afternoons I have closed
    Myself away from my children to do
    Nothing more than write my imaginations
    On to lots of bits of paper.

    I close my eyes, and the years wind back,
    All those empty days, and the board games
    On top of the wardrobe. I reproach myself
    For all the lost hours and afternoons I have closed
    Myself away from my children to do
    Nothing more than write my imaginations
    On to lots of bits of paper.

    On the bed, old man's morning stretches,
    I close my eyes, and the years wind back,
    All those empty days, and the board games
    On top of the wardrobe. I reproach myself
    For all the lost hours and afternoons I have closed
    Myself away from my children to do
    Nothing more than write my imaginations
    On to lots of bits of paper.

  48. For all the love we gave Donny
    His absentmindedness regularly earned reproach

    Donny lived in the world moment by moment
    his innocence so easily overlooked

    Despite the certainty of Walter
    and the blitzkrieg of his invectives

    Donny lived until he could live no more
