Lantana – favorite flower of beloved Austin poet Patricia Fiske (1927 – 2020)
BORN TO BE A STAR
Elizabeth Taylor
had eyelashes
that grew in double rows
(a genetic mutation called distichiasis
you could look it up)
Rather rare , and generally harmless
except when serving as they did
to frame wet violet eyes
And everywhere men falling
northward like the Nile
