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...
