Marvelous Spatuletail and Aechmea mertensii [current correct binomial for Aechmea mucroniflora] - a bromeliad from the rainforests of South America, specifically Columbia
Loddigesia mirabilis and Aechmea mucroniflora, John Gould - ca. 1840
Aside from Birds of Paradise, these are some of the coolest lookin tails in the jungle.
remember to remember me, standing still in your past, floating fast like a hummingbird
His goal in life was to be an echo
The type of sound that floats around and then back down
Like a feather
But in the deep chrome canyons of the loudest Manhattans
No one could hear him
Or anything
So he slept on a mountain
In a sleeping bag underneath the stars
He would lie awake and count them
And the gray fountain spray of the great Milky Way
Would never let him
Die alone
