Three Tree

Two can often make three
So be careful when you set out to sea

The Magic Scroll

The writings on the scroll
Were quite magic and so deep
They kept profits mighty high

And labor mighty cheap

Paint And Elephants On Wood

The Tired Triers

Those who stay together

Decay together

Cheek & Beak

May I ask you something?

And I don't mean to be rude

But might this be the hole

Where you sometimes insert food?

The Steady Puffs

These boys would smoke anything

Hair, a towel, sunglasses, a tire

Just throw it all in their pipe

And kiss it with some fire

The Flower Hands

My fists were solid steel

My arms were trunks of trees

Now I just have pretty flower hands

I like to wave around in the breeze

The Ear Butterflies

Ear Butterflies invaded

And it was time to rejoice!

Finally some folks around

Who don't mind listening to my voice

And Now....Ear Butterflies On Parade!!!!

The Sacred Twists

You're so stretchy and twisty.

Are you sacred and holy?

No, I just lay off the chips

And go easy on the guacamole.

The Beeping Shepherds

Three shepherds arrived in the city

So tired of herding sheep

"We too, wish to stare at blue screens all day

And hold little things that go "Beep!"

The Party Skulls

Give us some gin
And take us for a spin
And you might just get to see
What we look like with some skin

The Future Bretts

A prayer to see the future
And what do I get!?
A mean little freak
Who calls himself "Brett!"

The Coils

If I coil my protrusion
I might achieve an electronic fusion

The Gravity Gang

When we last visited Earth

How different it was!

The two legged beings

Had so much more fuzz

Whittled

Running fast from his past
He's whittled down his legs
With so many memories to shed
He'll soon just be a head

The Chins

The Chins lifted my spirits
And made me feel so alive
One time I got to the club early
To wait for their van to arrive

Dream Text From The Other Side

Never stop giving
Never stop receiving
Never stop loving

New Animation! "ROZ"

"ROZ" rolls!


I was fortunate enough to have Dana Muise animate (using Flash 8.0) and sound design some characters I came up with. They're speaking a conversation I recorded awhile back. To witness Dana gradually come up with amazing moves such as the undulating body lines and the flickering eyes set to the soundtrack he found was an absolute joy.

Each time he sent a new version for review, it all became rather breathtaking and mesmerizing as I kept hitting the "play" button again and again.... And again! He's just a fantastic animator. That's not all though...His creation/direction of his own animated projects, storyboarding, drawing and writing are all top notch.

Producer/Engineer, Scott Greiner, mixed and mastered final audio to ensure proper levels and crystal clarity.

Enjoy our collaboration if you check it out. Thanks!

The Specific Generals

A holy scene
On a sacred site
Just another day
On Planet Polite

The Playbills

After 50 years of marriage
Finally some peace
One stared at Annie
While the other enjoyed Grease

Jill Totem & The Friendly Connections

We spend dough

We eat dough
We look like dough

The Oxygen Tradesman

My brain thinks about itself

Nosey Hamlet

My self esteem is somewhat high
I feel like a pretty good guy
Today I spit rather far
And waved at a really old car

The Evaporators

Everyone around me loved the Mets
But I was more into the pets

The Towards

Run to my party
Birthday snake will be eaten
Balloons pop in slow motion
As heads start to sweeten

Room Mush

Mushroom Man
Sweet Mushroom Man
The kingdom of heaven is yours

When Autumn comes
You'll hear the drums
And lick the light pouring out of your sores

The Bursts

When his lower legs decided to leave him
He could not understand the rebellion down below
But when he later met them
He saw that it was just flowers wanting to grow

The Pinefish Pacifists

Never heard
But always loud
The sound of a party
Inside a cloud

Lawrence Bugstaff

Lawrence Bugstaff
Loves the smell of pine
Always running in the forest
Never home online

Chewer Of Hair

Hey, if you wanna chew hair
Be my guest
I'll even give you the spicy stuff
That grows upon my chest

Creepy Baby

Creepy when you're born

And creepy when you die
Creepy when you laugh
And creepy when you cry

Overbite Runner

Running from hot car seat vinyl

That burns his thighs when he sits down

The Investor

The Fruit Tree giveth to both the rich and the poor
Seek my good services and you shall harvest much, much more

Three Leaders

Three leaders.
All ruled well.
Their philosophy:
"A good land must have a good smell."

Tuner

"Stay Tuned!" said the autograph
From Bill's favorite rock star

The rock star later died
While smoking a cigar

The Inseperable 3

Together at rainy European rock festivals
With gentle urine rivers
Then back in hotel rooms
Watching rock stars destroy their livers

Christopher Pills

Christopher Pills had talent
Everything he touched became calm
I think it went to his head though
Because he demanded we start calling him "Mom"!

Mr. and Mrs. 25jx12 34w9.5j

One struggled with the big questions

And stared up towards the sky
The other thought about what ingredients
Would go into the next pie

Keyhole Penwish

I had a wife once
But now she's back with her mother
I still work for her dad
And party with her brother

Ping Pong Lion

If this chap seems too sweet

And simply won't turn off the charm
It's only because he wants me to draw him some feet
And maybe even just one arm

Eyes Wheel

When a woman begins dating
She must develop her wheel of eyes
There's no better way to go about
Spotting uncommitted guys

Sirs 60

Sirs 60 were, indeed, just that age.

Gulping is in their past
And now sipping is the rage!
