Default The Time Is Out of Joint

Out of Sync

It's almost one. Which means it's almost two.
To read the manual fills our hearts with dread,
so setting dashboard clocks is hard to do.
It's almost one, which means it's almost two.
Though half of every year our time's askew,
frankly, we'd rather do the math instead:
it's almost one, which means it's almost two.
To read the manual fills our hearts with dread.


Revisions:
L1 was "It's almost one, which means it's almost two."
L3 was "so setting dashboard clocks we just can't do."
L6 colon was a period
L7 "it's" was "It's"
