AMechanicalSoul in Philosophy

The Gray Society

I've heard people advance the thought

that artists and entertainers

don't hold "real jobs," aren't "productive."

Apparently not finding worth

in diversion and in culture,

but holding work in high regard,

Members of the Gray Society

must have a higher tolerance

for absolute boredom than I.

I see this most often in YouTube comments, I've heard this regarding poets, authors, painters, and actors from time to time. Some people apparently find fun and intellectual stimulation less worthwhile than pure material wealth. And I thought I was a mechanical soul. :P
