How the wells and people see.

It is possible to divide all wells into parts.
There is one well among numerous wells.
The moving well is the first name, beginning quickly and unstoppably to rush in the sky.
The immovable well is another name, because it always exists.
The dying well is another name.
The falling well is another given name, with time that from black skies to earth is falling.
The last well of all is not a well.
For a long time it is impossible to see, but, because of this, it shows itself.
As if some forces break themselves into many tears.
