Unless you're going for something, for lack of a better word, "postmodernistic", it's not technically fan fiction. In a sense, if there is a commercial term for what this written article does, it's false advertising.

Well, no, it's not quite fan fiction, but having written it from an in-universe ...

The Blindness
Moral.
So, oft in theologic wars
____ The disputants, I ween,
Rail on in utter ignorance
____ Of what each other mean,
And prate about an Elephant
____ Not one of them has seen!

The Argument
VIII.
And so these men of Indostan
____ Disputed loud and long,
Each in his own opinion
____ Exceeding stiff and strong,
Though each was partly in the right,
____ And all were in the wrong!

The Rope
VII.
The Sixth no sooner had begun
____ About the beast to grope,
Than, seizing on the swinging tail
____ That fell within his scope,
"I see," quoth he, "the Elephant
____ Is very like a rope!"

The Fan
VI.
The Fifth, who chanced to touch the ear,
____ Said: "E'en the blindest man
Can tell what this resembles most;
____ Deny the fact who can,
This marvel of an Elephant
____ Is very like a fan!"

The Tree
V.
The Fourth reached out his eager hand,
____ And felt about the knee.
"What most this wondrous beast is like
____ Is mighty plain," quoth he;
"'T is clear enough the Elephant
____ Is very like a tree!"

The Snake
IV.
The Third approached the animal,
____ And happening to take
The squirming trunk within his hands,
____ Thus boldly up and spake:
"I see," quoth he, "the Elephant
____ Is very like a snake!"

The Spear
III.
The Second, feeling of the tusk,
____ Cried:"Ho!—what have we here
So very round and smooth and sharp?
____ To me 't is mighty clear
This wonder of an Elephant
____ Is very like a spear!"

The Wall
II.
The First approached the Elephant,
____ And happening to fall
Against his broad and sturdy side,
____ At once began to bawl:
"God bless me!—but the Elephant
____ Is very like a wall!"

The poem ...

Okay, I'll lose some of the nifty formatting I had on Blogger, but if people think I should repost it here, I'll give it a shot. I need to brush up on my BBCode so it's not a total mess though.

I'm not sure Yuuko is the best person to use as your point of view character though. This seemed ...

Hi folks. I'm new here, and actually only plan on making this one contribution; hopefully that's not a problem.

Perhaps not technically "fan fiction," I wrote a series of reflections from an in-universe perspective as a blog named Yuuko's Elephant . I recently finished polishing up the format, and ...
