with slipping hours of daylight it's this line that confuses me in relation to cusp
to spend together. Shadows run
away from bed and down the flight
of stairs, outside the house; refuse

to stop until the car. We close
the door, we turn the key, are soothed
by miles passed and passing road
as sun ages to tarnished wine, nice line

ensnaring us in drops of gold.
We closed the door, but cannot find
a way to reinforce our hold

on treasure, set to burn by dusk another good image
as sunshine leaves

the sky to rust.
the rhymes are good, barely noticed but the content

L 6, and 7, verge on gobbledygook, it could be sorted with some better enjambment, the latter portion too. i see little that makes it sunday. it does read very well in places and on first take, is solid, it's only when i look at it objectively it tends to fall apart a little.

thanks for the read.
