His poetry collection Death College and Other Poems, with an afterword by Allen Ginsberg, was published in 1976 by Bill Berkson's Big Sky Books.

During his years as a Benedictine monk, Veitch formed friendships with two former Trappists.

The result was the book The Visions of Elias, published in 2016 by Sky River Books.[2][3][4]
