The People Who Live Deep Underground
It’s said that there are people,
who live Beneath the ground.
Deep within Earth’s middle,
little folks can be found.
Not Leprechauns or Gnomes with tempers;
no Elves or Trolls, are to be seen.
I’m told, they have some ghastly tempers;
when prying eyes won’t leave them be.
They often wander up above
to play with human minds.
mess with them and get rebuffed;
they simply are not kind.
So, let them be, those beings old;
you’re safest if you’re not too bold.
