Sumario:This work analyzes the fourth and fifth stanzas of the poem "Macumba" of Trindade. It argues that this black poet uses poetic aesthetics, based on the religions of African matrices, to face the white-racist paradigm that reduces the black man body to vagrancy. Trindade interprets the black man body as a sacred body and invites to practice a philosophical policy that values life in all its manifestations.
