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...
