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...
