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...
