“PETER� is a story I originally wrote as the voice over for a stop motion that never quite became what I wanted it to be. Here is another attempt to portray that story:

THIS IS PETER.
HE LIVES ALONE WITH GREAT COMMODITIES
AND HIS PET BEAVER.
FOR A WHILE NOW, PEOPLE HAVE FEARED HIM. HIS GINORMOUS AND ORDINARY COMPLEXION HAVE ALWAYS THROWN THEM OFF.
BUT IT’S NOT HIS FAULT
HE WASN’T BORN SLIM!
PETER HAS LED A LONESOME LIFE.
EVERY MORNING
HE MAKES SOME COFFEE AND POURS IT IN HIS FAVORITE MUG.
AFTER HE WAKES UP,
THEN HE GOES OUT TO SEARCH FOR A JOB. HOPING THIS TIME TO GET IT RIGHT.
AS HE WALKS DOWN THE STREET, HE FEELS PEOPLE’S STARES. IT USED TO BOTHER HIM BUT NOW ITS SOMETHING HE CAN BEAR.
THE FIFTH DOOR ENDS UP BEING ANOTHER DISAPPOINTMENT,
AND PETER IS LEFT AGAIN WITHOUT EMPLOYMENT. SORRY.
WHAT’S WRONG WITH HIM?
UGH!
WHEN HE ARRIVES AT HIS DESTINATION HE CAN BARELY FIT THROUGH THE DOOR,
AND AFTER STRUGGLING WITH THE CHAIRS
HE DECIDES TO SIT ON THE FLOOR.
MOMENTS LATER, A WOMAN CALLS HIS NAME...
PETER SMITH,
STRAIGHT DOWN THE AISLE, YOUR DOOR SHOULD BE THE
THE FIFTH!
AS HE HEADS BACK HOME HE THINKS ABOUT HIS LACK OF LUCK...
AND WONDERS IF ONE DAY IT WILL STOP.
