Summary

I chanced a Dalek

by a toppled phone booth

at Russell Square

its circuits cranked

from disrepair

Why are you crying

Dalek dear?

Why are you crying so strange?

My circuit's used for fighter planes

to please your Maggied Blair

So join the peace march

Dalek dear

Join all of us who care

We need your wounds

Be visible, we need them

loudly there
