Taylor mali used a lot of similes and metaphors. When he says that depression is like a fire (simile) because it is a reason to jump out of a building. He used the phrase "I'm an idiot" (Metaphor). He relates himself to an idiot because of his bad decisions. The title Depression is like a fire, Means that its a good reason to jump out a window. But with depression, jumping out of a window doesn't help it. The reason I choose this poem is because I can totally understand the metaphor in the title.
