80s

I’ve got a Trapper Keeper type of memory storage

Assorted childhood memories

Of metal lunch box days

Themed with my favorite cartoon character

And Floppy Disks were still a thing

When an alien made Speak and Spell popular

Filing to the theater to hear the reeling of the film strip projector.

Breakfast wasn’t as sweet if Mr. T or Gremlins weren’t on the cereal box

And Afternoons weren’t complete if Reading Rainbow

Or the Sesames Street was not on repeat.

Damn I miss the 80s.
