                                 This Smart Watch Will Last

                      Time is but the stream I go a-fishing in

                              -Henry David Thoreau, Walden

I do not set the time; time simply is:
The dawning day requires no entrance code
The morning frost need not be set to wake
The yakking crows cannot be switched to “Off”

The lingering fog sends no notifications
The bare-limbed oaks re-set themselves in spring
The sky is the background app refresh
The wind is a warranty for life

All these good things are made to be -
I do not set the time, but God sets me
