Naftakin, The Blind           
                                   
                                          
 A  Student At The Charcoal Guild...  His 
 Eyes  Sewn  Shut From Birth...  The Most 
            Successful Student            
                                          
 But One Day He Fell Down Into A  Crystal 
 Cavern.  It Was Deep In  The Mountain, A 
 Great  Hall  With  Only  A  Single  Tiny 
 Inlet  For   Both  Light   And   Falling 
               Students...                
                                          
 In The Fall, The  Quartz  Sliced Off The 
 Threads  In His  Eyes,  Opening Them For 
 The   First   Time.   Before  Him,   The 
 Crystals  Mirrored And Refracted The One 
 Light  Smidge  Into A Whole  Night  Sky, 
 And  He  Was   Struck   Down  With   Awe 
                                          
 But  Also With  Shame, Because His  Eyes 
 Had  Seen.  Hurriedly,  He  Used  Thread 
 From  His   Robe   To   Sew  Them   Back 
 Together, And When Help  Came He Did Not 
        Tell Of His Transgression.        
                                          
 For Years  He  Studied At  The Guild. He 
 Became  A  Master, And  Then A  Pilgrim. 
 Yet The  Image From The Cave  Never Left 
                   Him.                   
                                          
 At  The End  Of  His Life,  When At  The 
 Edge Of The World  He  Opened  His  Eyes 
 For A Second Time, Stars  Had Hatched In 
                  Them...
