[ubuntu-uk] Cron task?

I'm using Feh [a cli image viewer] trying to replicate the old "Pictures
Folder" screen saver. By using "feh -rzZFYD7 /home/[me]/Pictures"
I obtain 99% of the functionality [including directory recursion - 
but have to fire it manually.
Is there anyway to set a cron job to start it automatically after x
amount of time of idle kbd/mouse.

All I want is to go get a cup of coffee and get back to find the
machine displaying random samples of my photos.... why so hard :(
