A Call from Naked Natalie

Naked Natalie called a minute ago concerned about Katrina and my whereabouts and I told her I was sad....all my friends were scurrying through my mind looking for a place to stay...Pope Joan said if only there was a way..invited them all to come up to Kansas City....there's room in the garage for a month...but Naked Natlaie was more concerned about the red bed sheet...It hangs over the front window,,,she was sure you could wash it and clean it up..and even though if there were stains from the flood that would add to the Biblical Proportions of this whole teloing....the bedsheet is directly across the front room of The Starring Artist Gallery on Thalia St..certainly as I write under at least three feet of water....four feet and it will be inches from crawling into the living room and flooding the house.....and the waters are rising...but if they stop and begin to subside...I will return to New Orleans and rescue that bedsheet...everybody should be off their roofs by then...It is a body painting....where my body was painted with white acrylics and I lay down face first on the bed sheet maing a ghostly imprint like the Shroud of Turin only bolder plus I outlined it later with strong black lines...Bonewoman allowed that her butt and the backs of her legs be painted white and she lay four times at my feet maiing an "X" at the bottom and Ashley Adams allowed that her supple 23 yr. old healthy body be painted and, bending as if emerging from my rib...she twisted her hands up till they met mine above my head forming what looks like "P"..the whole design looks like a P and an X..but those who know the word for CHRIST in Greek know the writers of the gospel used that "KYRIA when speaking of the Christ....the CHI in Greek is the X...the Greek letter for CH is "X" and the Greek letter for R looks like a P..the Cyrillic alphabet...the Chi-Rho....as in The Purple Rose of Chi-Rho..half on the screen ..half off....the bedsheet hung in an art show in the mid nineties and some uptown white bread was watching it with Bonewoman standing nearby...the wife said, "Is that their actual bodies?" The guy said, "I certainly HOPE no!" Bone said, "I did the butt part.." I would go to New Orleans and rescue that bedsheet if the waters subside..if not...i have pictures....
