Veils of Apollo is a powerful collection of poems and drawings/paintings that illuminate forms of revelation, healing, and spiritual liberation through the arts. Lauren Coyle Rosen intersperses her poems with her visual art, tracing the vitalities of dance, music, sculpture, painting, theater, and the artistic movements of the so-called natural world.

This is the third volume in Prisms, the moving second series of Lauren Coyle Rosen's selected poetic works. Prisms as frame refers to the ways in which the light of spirit or consciousness is refracted through various forms in our inner and outer realms - through prisms of the mind, heart, and soul, and through prisms of culture and nature, music and words, and much else. This much else includes poems, which can mirror or refract the light that emanates from inner knowing and consciousness, for the writer and the reader. Poems, as prisms, morph in meaning and significance with shifting senses, vantage points, and atmospheres. As with her first series of poetry, Smokeless Mirrors (in three volumes), the Prisms series resonates with Coyle Rosen's broader works on art, spirituality, consciousness, and liberation in prose and in other modalities.

On Lauren Coyle Rosen's poetry:

Lauren Coyle Rosen's poetry is a gorgeous song and journey towards relentless beauty, breathtaking light, generous spirit -- to truths that she stirs - provokes - in us.

-- Krishna Lewis, poet and author, Harvard University

Lauren Coyle Rosen's poetry is lush with imagery. It's like entering into a lyrical landscape that leaves one looking into a smokeless mirror, a clear body of water, or a sky. This is vital poetry.

-- J. Brent Crosson, professor, University of Texas at Austin, and author of Experiments with Power

Filled with vision and soul, these poems sing. They revel in language, recalling us to the beauty of words and the world they evoke.

-- Christine Desan, Leo Gottlieb Professor, Harvard Law School, and author of Making Money: Coin, Currency, and the Coming of Capitalism

A beautiful collection bathing in Lauren's imagery ... bridges the physical and spiritual world with taut elegance and grace. She guides her reader through Earthly pleasures, through lemon cherry breezes and beyond ... to wonders extra-worldly and beyond ... to Universal forms. Erudite but open and accessible ... welcomes the reader's take, while singing in subtle rhymes and octet rhythms, keeping time with her moon's metronymic sway.

-- Lady Booth Olson, lawyer and founder, LEB, LLC
