His own work has been translated abroad in more than a dozen languages.

Reed began publishing poems in magazines and small publications in the 1970s.[6] His influences include Rimbaud, Artaud, Jean Genet, J. G. Ballard, David Bowie and Iain Sinclair.[7] Reed has a long history of publication with Creation Books, Enitharmon Press, Shearsman Books and Peter Owen, and his Selected Poems was published in 1987 by Penguin Books.

He has collaborated with the musician Itchy Ear,[8][9] and they perform live under the name The Ginger Light.[10] The Ginger Light regularly perform in London at the National Portrait Gallery and the Horse Hospital. Their 2012 album, Big City Dilemma, was described as "a trippy comedown machine, taking you by your collar and dragging you along London pavements".[11]

Reed's BA (hons) degree and PhD are from the University of Essex[12] and he has occasionally taught at that institution and at the University of London.
