EDWARD BRATHWAITE

Opening your first
acceptance letter
in the spring rain
as a flood is reported
on the BBC,
this missive
sent from a fine arts
and dance magazine
on the West End,
soon you will run out
of secret ideas
under a yellow umbrella
the streets are flooded
you try on a perfect boot
like Cinderella.
