I also wish to thank Frida Kahlo who has become the principle character in this African story. I do not know how she managed to insert herself into this drama, because there is no known record of her ever going to Africa. Nevertheless, my humble task is merely to write this all down. I cannot be held responsible for the twists and turns of the plot, if there is a plot, if there is a Frida Kahlo, if there is a Fred Owens.
I wish to thank her for this story, and how it keeps me from contemplating the daily madness of the gay marriage earthquake in Baltimore -- all this stuff I read about in the newspaper. So many hairball ideas flood my mind, but I banish them when I go back to Africa in my dreams.
