My Meditation

There’s nothing like snuggling up 
in front of the TV and unwinding 
with a good memory. 

I can nuzzle into the wedge of my couch 
with a faux-fur blanket and relive my childhood 
spent within the halls of Bayside High
on the window seat of Clarissa’s bedroom
sitting in the cozy booths of the Peach Pit
and staring at the top of Stimpy’s beautiful red butt.

How my love of 90s TV
teaches me to live in the present.
