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...
