In the first days of Covid, when the disease spreads like one of dust
And the overflow capacity of extensive care units
There are few positions like Brazil
And the Amazon is the zero zone
A signal of the way she can terrify
And what awaits everyone
Mass bulbs in Manaus
Hospitals with complete capacity
Oxygen is exhausted
Tip boxes
The increase in deaths
Especially indigenous populations
And President Jair Bolsonaro laughs at the virus
He tells the cameras that it is a bit cold
That is strong and will catch it (even if it does)
Fight with the governors
And locks
And refuses masks
And pushes unproven drugs
And his return turn to indigenous communities
Bolsonaro’s management attracts managers who execute in local lands
And the aptitude that took care of their peoples
And left the blocked indigenous territories, such as the islands in a sea of unknown and fear
But the country’s indigenous peoples are used to turning them.
And they act.
They are obstacles in entrances to their territories.
They temperatures
And sprinkle alcohol
And distribute masks
And block visitors
And endure the disease
What they know can devastate their peoples
And when Covid extends to his land
So do it everywhere
They to their ancestral medicine
Its local plants
Percentage with other neighboring tribes.
This is what the aboriginal of Almernda Ramos de Lima saw
In the maximum remote plugs of Brazil.
In the river,
near the Colombian border.
“The exams waited. They waited for the arrival of the doctors,” she says.
“Everyone has organized
And shared the classic they were preparing. »
“Where we have forests,
Where we have plants,
We have medicine, ”she says.
“We have our internal forest. “
Historical aboriginal leaders have fallen.
The Aritarian chef Yawalapiti, who directed his Xingu to other people for five decades.
Paulinho Paiakan, from Kayapó.
The artist and healer vovó Bernaldina . . . of the Macuxi tribe of the Ropose Serra do Sol Territory.
Wisdom and wisdom reserves. Heartbreaking losses.
But their other people sang.
And dance their tribal dances.
And venerated his enjoyed and his elders.
And the new leaders have increased.
Fight against his land, his communities and his lifestyle.
Now and forever.
