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...
