Hologlyphs II

"S.K. Yeatts' Hologlyphs II: Afterlight is a luminous book of poems that seem to be gathered from the estuary of his senses...It is a book that deserves to be read again and again." --Robert Ren Galvn, Author of The Shadow of Time

"In these poems, the physical becomes the emotional, coloring the terrain of towns, countrysides, and cities with the deep and enduring pleasures and pains of human love and loss." --P.C. Scheponik, author of Psalms to Padre Pio and four more poetry books.

"...if you are looking for a collection of poems that surprise, challenge, and intellectually entertain in unexpected ways through classic as well as novel uses of poetic devices, then Yeatts' book is for you." --John Sweeder, a poet and memoirist, author of Untethered Balloons
