@billy - Thanks for the feedback and kind words
Are "thusly" and "thus" archaic terms? I use them a lot in my day to day speech, and in casual correspondence. No doubt why my brother calls me Stephen Fry haha.
In the second fragment, "the church of the blood" was a metaphor for my mother's vagina. I wasn't really alluding to her religious beliefs, though she considers herself a Christian, and always wears a crucifix, which I've written about in other poems. By "sickness" I meant mental illness.
Thanks again for the kind words
