The Catch
Jobie Apr 2020
I see with my mind
Looking through different filter lenses
Changing for better
and for worse

It hurts to realize
I may never know true vision
And I'm not even sure
If I really know reality

I live life through mental images,
these horrid scenes that play out in my head

My antipsychotics are failing me
And the catch is that they probably always will
But I love you, at least that's real

Who is He Anyway?
Jobie Nov 2017
Take my first kiss with your rose lips
I'll sit through purgatory with you
Sin in both our mouths that we'll hide from God

Not that he's looking

Toxic Wings
Jobie Nov 2017
Holy heretic honey,

You are not a god-killer
You are a god
and I, a god-lover

Your angel

old thoughts
Jobie Oct 2020
i want to go to my home
not quite where i belong
because what i deserve is better
but even a housecat knows none of us will get what we deserve
not in these fleeting lives
of insignificance


i once thought there was nothing after death
and I'm sure that later on I might just wish so
but for now I'm waiting
to go home
while humanity tears itself apart
the same way it always has

— The End —
