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...
