Wonderland
I remember our first encounter: I was suitably unsettled. A cartoon of technicolour proportions To excite the mind with a taste of wonder.

Lapis Lazuli
Sometimes I want to run away, Just me. It's not because I don't love you Because I do. But there's a part of me that cracks a little

Dear Robber Bob
Dear Robber Bob, It's a strange thing to be writing you a letter of resignation when I haven't done the job yet but I am afraid that's what I have to do, to stave off your disappointment.

No More Mrs Sweet Cheeks
Dear Me, It feels weird writing a letter to myself but the time has come. I can no longer be resigned and therefore, it is time to resign. Word play. You're good at this. Punnage is your forté.
