Untitled story/poem

Common Man says to the poet, "Get a job! You sit around all day with nothing important to do!" The poet sitting at a desk looks up at the Common Man to say "I draw for food! I speak of the Truth! I write for proof! I speak for the good! My job is to find out why you would ask a question of such!" Puzzled, the Common Man asks, "Why not just be a regular person, and work towards the greater riches?" the Poet looks back again and says "Riches? I have ALL the Riches that i will ever need!!!! I have aquired the knowledge of glorious gold! It has an infinit amount of worth compared to your riches!"
