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...
