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...
