Weekend is a short poem written by Yrik-Max Valentonis and shared with The Ugly Writer under the theme One Step Forward Two Steps Back.

I spent all Sunday morning

Shredding Polaroids from

Last night, almost wanting

To save some.

I started to feel guilty

About not getting to church

But then looking at the photos

I wonder which god

Would have me?

Maybe there are better ways

To spend a weekend

But I sure don’t know them
