An Ode to Ole Pointy Beard Pete

Ole Pointy Beard Pete loves his single fin stick
It goes super fast and rides real slick

He always runs swiftly towards the ocean
As if he is strengthened by some magical potion

His beard trails behind like a bushy tail
And sometimes he uses it as a sail

He’s a surf hunter adventure man
He’s surfed in Alaska and even Iran

He once rode a wave onto the back of a whale
Then the whale got angry and flicked it’s tail

That was the best darn ride Ole Pete ever had
And when he remembers that day it always makes him glad

The End

Laser Head Lance

An Ode to Laser Head Lance

Laser Head Lance is a slippery old cat
Lives in a world of shadows covered up by his hat

The one day the wind turned from breeze into gale
Blew up his hat like a boat under sail

Those secrets within did explode out his head
And the colour of his hands were a deep shade of red

His secrets revealed that he'd been quite bad
And the fallout was severe and the people were mad

Oh how the mighty have fallen and the proud do stumble
Now Laser Head Lance is humbler than humble

Mr T Bird Beard the Zombie

I painted this dude for my fortnightly feature in CreatureMag called Mulga's Zombie Zoo in which I post a new zombie painting every 2 weeks.


An Ode To Mr T Bird Beard

He’s a tough looking zombie with a look that strikes fear
But under the surface he’s a sweet old dear

The birds really love him and nest in his beard
They know in their hearts there’s not a thing to be feared

If everyone had a beard that was this fully grown
Every little bird would always have a home

See you next time.

An Ode To Bird Brain Bill the Zombie


His name is Bill and for a brain
He’s got a bird thus his name

His thoughts are scattered like bird seed
Of worms and kernels his mind does feed

Bill’s original brain was eaten alive
By Beardo the Weirdo doing the zombie jive

Beardo became Bill’s zombie dad
His beard is green and very rad

The early worm gets eaten alive
By the early bird who’s got the drive

One bird in the head is worth two in the tree
Especially when that space is free

Today Bill operates four birdseed shops
His brain is happy the food never stops

That’s the story of Bird Brain Bill
With a bird for brain and looks to kill


See you next time.

An Ode to the Zombie King of the Sea

I am Zombie 

King of the Sea

All powerful 

That is me

I inhabit the depths

Where Leviathan roam

Down many steps

I call my home

My beard is long

And it is red

The source of my power

Keeps me fed

Like the pits of Mordor

I am underwater death

Just dip in your toe

And take a breath

Upon dolphins and whale

I enjoy to feed

With but one bite

I devour with speed

If your down my way

Come and say hi

I'll invite you to stay

I'll bake a pie

The flavour could be

Penguin and shark

Bounty of the sea

This aint no lark

The End

See you next time.

Captain Crook the Shady Zombie Captain

© Mulga 2012, Captain Crook the Shady Zombie Captain, Ink and texta on Paper, 30 x 42 cm

This guy is a real shady character, you can see it in his eyes and by the way he smiles.

My talented friend Stuart McKerihan composed a poem about this seed bag.

Captain Crook

 If you’re after a captain

Who looks more sleazy

You’d be hard pressed

This one’s real greasy

From port to port

He’s known all round

As the meanest moustache

To ever run aground

Once the commodore

Of a mighty fleet

Now he hangs out

Where the fishes sleep

The legend goes

That he was steering his vessel

When first mate Billy

Gave him the cutthroat special

His mutinous crew

Began to rejoice

Till they heard a rumble

A sickening voice

Turns out that zombies

Don’t bleed too much

And Captain Crook

Wasn’t dead as such

The terrified crew

Bailed in quick succession

And Crook was left nursing

His leering expression

Not at all pleased

He set about fishing

His mutinous crew

Ending up in the kitchen

To figure what happened

You don’t need much vision

Just spare a thought for the crew

The next time you go fishin’

See you next time.

Beardo the Weirdo

Here is Beardo the Weirdo. 

He is a zombie. 

My good friend Stuart wrote a poem to accompany the picture. 

We hope you enjoy.

Zombie Getting Kicked in the Goonies

This is the first highlighter zombie I drew.
He doesn't look to happy.
It looks like he just took a swift one to the goonies.
Poor zombie fella!
Here's a poem about his predicament.

An ode to the goonie kicked zombie

Getting kicked in the goonies aint much fun
Even when your a zombie on the run
The pain can make a tough zombie cry
He'll double over in pain and want to die
He knows that feeling because he's the undead
Or maybe not if there's no brains left in his head

See you next time.

Fat Cat Zombie

This guy likes eating caviar and baby cats. He is the guy the Occupy Wall Street campers don't like. He is the 1%.  He has dollars and he wants more. He has power and power gets you want you want. Shame on you fat cat zombie.
See you next time.

Six Round Zombie Heads

This is a painting of six round zombie heads.
They are round like an orange or a bowling ball.
Some are happy, some are sad, some are tired and some are bad,
some are whistling and some are poking their tongue out and one of them has a mo-hawk.
Their teeth are sharp and i wouldn't like to meet them in the dark.
See you next time.
