A Kevin, if you are unfamiliar, is anything that supports one end of something or temporarily holds something in place. Kevins are named after my neighbor Kevin. He is particularly good at holding stuff in place.
We are, in fact, surrounded by Kevins.
While on a walk along my country road, I paused for a moment so I could remove my jacket. Before removing my jacket, I peeled off my gloves. As good fortune would have it, I found a stand of rabbitbrush just off the edge of the road to serve as a Kevin for holding my gloves.
