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...
