Showers Poem by tyler eisner

Isn’t it puzzling
how you mind trails off
to points you never thought about
at depths you never thought possible
as your brain goes hopping down the bunny trail
off on a tangent.
How nice the sun is!
and then pulls you back to the original topic
taking you deeper than the Mariana’s trench,
but that only leads you to a higher understanding
of what a paradox is, and where it is used
then you start thinking in poetry
like how to compare.
a simile is like a twist
and a metaphor is a turn
into a new way of looking
at your life
one might, in their thought, consider rhyme
and while they are immersed in thought
they don’t realize the time
and as they realize, one might become distraught
among apprehending and alienating alliteration.
