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...
