Standing in Line

I stood in line at the unemployment office. Ahead of me was the singer David Byrne. 

I get ascared of celebrities. I think if I try and talk to them, they’ll turn their high-octane dazzleness on me, and I’ll be obliterated.

So I stayed quiet and looked at the floor. 

And then I thought, wow, if there wasn’t ground, we would all be falling in space.
