The Poetry of Mark Daniel Milbocker 
Unfolded Green

Curry the currency of sapphire's star
for the glint illuminates eternal forms
passing between the angels of refraction,
that ghostly presence of our animal opalescence

So make it rain with pistachioed dates
syrupping til overflows the sacrifice
into soft moans shrinking from obsidian's edge
sphincter suckling against the opulent teet

Impress the companion horde with unnecessaries
making disciples of the hungrily yearning
who surrender their photons to the burn
of galaxial turning in the screech of dry sands

So splashes the fertility of power unfurled
in an ardent apostasy, careening down the
towering passages of this mortal anthill
citrine flow begging for tsavoritic seeds.
