Crucifix
From Silkworms
crucifix:
fabric passes under one shoulder and across the small of the back, supporting performer's weight. upper hand may be free as long as the fabric is trapped under the shoulder; lower hand holds tight, keeping fabric slightly in front and to the side of hip.
this is a very useful intermediate or end position (style the legs for a more interesting look), and a lot of other poses use the crucifix support (fabric under the small of the back, and trapped under a shoulder).
links: the seattle circus wiki seems to call this position fake flag, described here: http://www.byz.org/cgi-bin/SeattleCircusWiki?FakeFlag
n.b. that wiki uses the term "crucifix" to refer to a more specific position that i would probably call a "standing neck hold crucifix"
