path of least resistance

why can't you leave us alone? we are peaceful. loving creatures. gentle and kind . we just wish to be left alone to live and raise our young . but you fear what you don't understand . so we live beneath the earth , aided by our advanced(to you) technology . we have created an eden down here . sunlight , forests , rivers , gardens . we4 thrive . yet when we "top out" as wecall it . when we venture outside to check on your progress , you set traps and come after us with your weapons . you scare your children with tales of us . so you perpetuate the myth of the monstrous sasquatch , yeti , bigfoot , and all the other cute names you have for us . we wait for an awakening among you . the day when you are no longer ruled by fear .
