Ma ka Huasteca o Hidalgo, ma kahi kihi iki o Mexico, hoʻopakele kekahi mau kaiāulu i ka haʻaheo o kā lākou moʻomeheu Nahuatl. Ma luna o nā kuʻuna ʻē aʻe o ka hoʻolauleʻa, kū i waho ke pena kino, kahi hana maʻamau ma mua o ka Hispanic i hōʻea i ka mahele o nā kiʻi.
Ua hoʻokuʻu ʻia ka diabolō ma Coacuilco. Nā pule i hala aku nei, ua ʻike mua ka quiquixahuitles i kēia, haʻi mai ʻo Antonio iaʻu i ka wā e ʻānai ana i ka umauma o kāna keiki me ka lepo ʻāhinahina. Inā paha e noʻonoʻo wau iā lākou he ʻelf, wili ʻo Terencio, nānā i loko o kāna ʻeke a hōʻike i kahi mea kani lāʻau, me kahi waha ʻohe i hoʻokomo ʻia i nā lau paina: "he quiquixahuitle kēia." Pā ʻo ia. A laila e hoʻomanaʻo pehea mai ke awāwa i ke kuahiwi a mai ke kuahiwi a ke awāwa, kani kāna kanikau ʻono i kēlā me kēia kauhale, kaulia nā kaulahao, i kēlā me kēia pō he hypnotic hou aʻe. Ka lani a pau. A laila ua hāmau lākou a ʻo ia ka hoʻomaka o nā laikini karnival Huasteco.
Hoʻonui ka lā i kona mālamalama mai ka scree e hana ma ke ʻano he kahakai i mua o ka muliwai. Ma ʻaneʻi ua ʻākoakoa nā kāne - akā ʻo nā keiki ka mua i hōʻea - mai ke kaiāulu liʻiliʻi o Coacuilco, ma ka wāwae o kahi puʻu emerara a me ka hapalua hola (hiki i kekahi ke manaʻoʻiʻo i ka hapalua o ka honua), ma ke ala, mai Huejutla de Reyes. I ka ʻeleu euphoric hana i nā mākua e hoʻomākaukau i nā pigment a me nā mea i koe e pena ai i nā kino o kekahi. ʻO kekahi mau hoʻolālā o kēia mau kiʻi kiʻi abstract e like me; ʻo ka mea lili loa e ʻimi i ke kumu. Aia ʻo Terencio i ka naʻau e hōʻike i nā mea huna a lawe mai iaʻu kokoke i ka lihi o ke kahawai ʻo Calabozo kahi e hana ai nā pākeke i ke ānuenue. ʻO ka lānahu, pōhaku tepetate, ʻili lāʻau pemuche a me ka pālolo, i hoʻoheheʻe ʻia a hiki i ke kiko, hāʻawi i nā kala. "I ke ala o ko mākou poʻe kūpuna," hoʻolaha haʻaheo ʻo ia, ma mua o ka hōʻoia ʻana aia kekahi pena pena vinyl pau. "Akā ʻaʻole like ka nui me Huejutla, ʻeā? Ma laila i poina ka poʻe palaualelo, ma laila lākou e kūʻai ai i nā mea āpau i nā hale kūʻai ”.
Hoʻohui ʻia me ka līlia, ka wai a i ʻole ka aila kaʻa puhi ʻia, ʻo nā pigment ka ʻili ʻelua o ka poʻe metamorphosed i loko o nā chimatic chromatic. E nalowale nei? Nā pāpale hulu, nā pāpale kāleka a me nā machetes o ka mea like. No laila he pūʻulu mecos kā mākou nā ʻoliʻoli hauʻoli e hoʻonui i ka ikaika ke hoʻomākaukau lākou e hele i ke kaona. "E hele i nā wahine," i hāwanawana ai ʻo Juanito i kuʻu pepeiao.
"No nā wahine?" Ke haʻi lapuwale nei au. "ʻOiaʻiʻo, i kēia lā ka Pōʻalua, ko mākou lā. E uku ana lākou i ka mea a lākou i hana mai ai iā mākou i nehinei.
Ma 1.40 i ke kiʻekiʻe - hoʻokomo ʻia ke ana i ka pāpale wicker kahi i puka ai nā pepeiaohao ʻelua - ʻeleʻele ke kino e like me ka bitumen e hoʻokalakupua i nā kaula keʻokeʻo ma ke kua i hoʻohuli ʻia e ka moʻolelo "mai ka wā kahiko", kahi ʻōlelo o nā loina. Uhu ke keikikāne a hui pū me ka lehulehu. Pono ʻoe e wikiwiki i kāu wikiwiki i ʻole e haʻalele i ka hōʻike ...
Ma loko o nā palena i kaʻanalike ʻia, hoʻololi nā mea kino o ka Huasteca o Hidalgo mai ke kaiāulu i kahi kaiāulu. Hiki iā lākou ke hala i ʻelima a ʻekolu paha mau lā, hiki iā lākou ke ʻoi aku ka ascetic a ʻoi aku paha o ka epicurean. ʻAʻohe a ʻaʻohe paha he carnival ʻōiwi, kahi syncretic par excellence. Kali ʻia nā mahina ma mua - ʻo ia ke kumu e leʻaleʻa ai ka Quiquixahuitles i ka hoʻonāukiuki ʻana - ala lākou, e like me ka mea e manaʻo ʻia ai, ka hauʻoli, nā hulahula, nā mea momona a me nā lole. I kēia manawa hoʻomaka nā ʻano mea like ʻole: ka ʻāina, i noho ʻia e ka lāhui Nahuatl, hoʻōla hou i nā hana ma mua o ka Hispanic ma ke kāhiko ʻana - nā kikoʻī kikoʻī, kikoʻī liʻiliʻi - e like me nā koa kahiko i kapa ʻia i kēia lā ʻo Mecos.

Ua hui hou ʻia ʻo Juanito me nā mākaʻi. Martial, komo lākou a haʻalele i nā hale, lawe i nā wahine i kahi i hoʻonohonoho ʻia ma ke ʻano he hale paʻahao. ʻIke wale ʻia ke koʻikoʻi a me ka maikaʻi.
