Assault

It's been over ten years since I read Cormac McCarthy's Child of God, and it continues to give me nightmares.  I had no idea what I was getting myself into when I signed up for a Cormac McCarthy/Don DeLillo class in college.  

If you're brave, check out my poem, Assault, published by Visitant Lit.  It does give me some comfort knowing there are other Child of God readers out there, haunted by his lines and unable to look at anything the same way ever again.
