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...
