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...
