BLP of uncertain notability. His day job as press secretary is not notable, but it gives him press access so there is quite a bit of low-grade (not in-depth) coverage of him, including some new projects he seems keen to publicise. His notability as a poet rests on whether the award he won is sufficiently notable, which looks doubtful to me. Overall this article looks to me like part of a pr drive for his new career in music.

- Delete The award is not bluelinked, so unlikely to be notable (and reviews for poetry are hard to get, but in this case there's only one and it seems very, well, 'laudatory'). As nomination states, other than as a putative poet there's nothing to see here. As a poet, his command of metaphor is interesting, apparently being 'the ripe boil on society’s nose'.
