On the radio

I was very lucky to have a poem on BBC Radio Bristol's Upload show. The poem is called Encrypted and was written for Tonic, which is an amazing night. You get given a prompt and you have a month to write a piece for it.

The prompt I got was "threw postcards in the shape of airplanes hoping they get to where they meant to". It pushed the poem in strange new directions I never would have thought of if I was just sitting down to write without a prompt.

Thanks to Chris Beale for recording it and Upload for broadcasting it. It is nationwide across the UK and is a fantastic initiative. I'd really recommend sending something in.

Listen here. My poem is about an hour and a half in. It's on BBC Sounds until 23rd February.

(Now this song is in my head.)
