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...
