Sounding Well

Symmetry in distortion.

Like a sounding well,

You can determine the depth of me--

Plumb

Truth

from my

Core.

Test your breath against me

Say lies all--

I will not believe them.

Here am I,

Proof 

Against your intransigence.

But do not despair:

There is one lie I will hear

Again

And return it to you as true as if it broke forth from the first well ever sounded.
