Breaking the Sound Barrier

   Apple sells some fancy watches
     and so do other companies
   But I'll stick with my 'extra-alarm,' ruby-red 'fireman's clock'

   I just place it next to the bathroom door
     ~ when I need to go and the dang thing's locked

A clock that clears out a room is a keeper; and maybe a timekeeper too.

Talk about clearing clocks. I like the models that clean clocks. ~ Sugar Ray Leonard

and yet with watches with alarms everyone appears to be fashionably late.
