After Bella and the film crew left Edinburgh, Kevin spent a few quiet days in Edinburgh. In recent days, the campaign for the title of British poet laureate has been going on like a fire. Kevin is still in the queue. In other words, in their eyes, Kevin is still a clown in the Thames.
After the voting of the poet laureate, it is also the day for the final selection panel to start the selection. Because it is the highest level of British Poetry selection. Therefore, the selection panel is also in the charge of senior leaders of the British literary circle. For example, he is the president of the British Poetry Association, a senior in the British literary circle, and a big figure in the British cultural and educational circles.
As the president of the British Poetry Association, Randolph AUM is the chief judge of the poet laureate contest.
When the voting ended, there was no doubt that he supported Kevin. Because he had read the collection of all living beings, he thought it was the best collection of poems he had ever seen in his lifetime. Many poets may have more than a dozen very good poems, or more than 20. However, every poem in Kevin's all creatures is very close to perfection.
Such a poet, even if he is younger, even if he is not a royal aristocrat, according to the talent of poetry writing, he should also get the title of poet laureate.
So Randolph AUM did not hesitate to vote for Kevin. When the other judges saw Randolph AUM's vote, they were very surprised.
"President, are you sure you didn't write it wrong? Do you support Kevin, too? "
“yes! I think Kevin's poems are great. So, he has the ability to get the title of poet laureate Randolph AUM explained why he voted.
"But York Rutland had the most votes, and he was a royal, and his contribution to poetry was not bad. I think you can vote for him. You know, a lot of the membership fees of the British Poetry Association are sponsored by their royal family
Yes, the British Poetry Association does not have the above funds as the Chinese Poetry Association does. In many cases, they are sponsored by the Royal aristocratic groups who are interested in poetry. This is why in the early days, the winner can only be a poet of the royal nobility.
Randolph AUM, of course, noticed this, and he knew York Rutland from the beginning, and they had little friendship. But he couldn't resist the attraction of the collection of sentient beings. He felt that the title of poet laureate should be given to the author who wrote such a near perfect poem. That's why he supported Kevin without scruple.
"No, no, the number of votes won by the poet laureate does not have to be the highest. After all, the number of votes won by ten of them is not very different. I also know that the reason why Kevin can be ranked second is because of the recently popular collection of all living beings, but it is because of this collection of poems that I am more sure to vote for him. " Randolph AUM went on to explain.
"This poetry collection has been making a lot of noise recently. Is it really so magical? I seldom read the poems written by young people nowadays. Maybe if you say so, I should read them. "
"Yes, as for you haven't seen this collection of poems, please tell me when you've finished. Maybe then you will understand why I support Kevin
Randolph AUM believes that when several other judges watch Kevin's all living beings, they will understand why they recommend Kevin as the poet laureate this time.
"As a president, we all say that. Well, let's try our best to look at Kevin's all living beings. Maybe it has its advantages in selling well. Only, I hope it won't let us down. "
Randolph AUM, as the president of the British Poetry Association, can vigorously support a poet, which proves that the poet must have a great weight in his heart. So, at this time, other judges were also curious about Kevin's poems.
Yes, although Kevin's "the living beings" has nearly made the headlines in British poetry and even literature recently, many of them, as highly respected literary and poetic predecessors in Britain, hardly consider seeing poems written by modern young people. So, that's why many of them haven't seen all living beings.
