A wet salty tear is free
No longer held back by me.

Premium Member Doom's Date - Mar 5

Doomsday’s dismal dawn, in the deep distance, 
Is our dusk, the diadem of decadence;
Daunting and depthless, a dark and doleful dirge 
Deems this dungeon of demons due for death

Despair Appalling

Daunting I am here, merely a fear
worth haunting. 
In dearly & aware so exhausting, clearly there 
& defaulting. 
Nearly Despair Appalling, severely I swear 
it isn’t stopping.

Premium Member 'a-Haunting' Art Did Go

Art dug down, into the depths of his soul
Turned up the darkest fears, black as coal
   He'd gone 'a-haunting'
   But found it daunting
Wondered, 'Am I he for whom the bell tolls?'

Built tough for a wintery day,
grit a daunting cosmic display;

Trying to hard

Clever in my literacy 
Impaired in my itinerary 
Noted for variety 
Daunting in my propriety 
A jaunting of notoriety 
For wanting serenity 
exempted from purity
Quaint in obscurity

Premium Member Casper

Casper, the friendly ghost, comes calling
For those who know not, it is daunting
There is no way to know
His choice - door or window 
Even through walls, we see him flying

Holidays
              poised,  phony
  passing, daunting, demoralizing  
  Prizes, Money,  Memories, Gifts 
 unyielding, warming, reassuring

Dread

I
dread
boredom
wakefulness
the silence panics
My life has spun out of control
Embarking on a new day is a daunting task now
I must escape from this suffocating prison before I descend further into madness.

An Empty Ocean

Mind like an ocean
 
Full of empty spaces
 
Yet filled
with exotics
and colors
of all kinds
and varieties
 
Depths
of daunting darknesses
 
Devilish uncertainties
–likely
 
Godlike unknowns
–maybe

Haiku maxim for everyday life

Expect the sudden  
Pray for preparedness of heart 
For time has power

When you’re spending
Pay out exact expenses
Do it first in your home

Perfectionism
Is daunting to execute
Excellence requires not

The Deaf

Discouraging words were uttered to him 
They tried to halt him from reaching his dream 
But he did his very best 
He tried hard to reach his quest 
He was too deaf to hear their daunting scream
