"The Rock Star in the Mirror (Or, How David Bowie Ruined My Life)" is a dark comedy about a guy who will do anything to impress a young lady who's a huge Bowie fan. I'm honestly not sure how well this bit works out of context:
So, I keep tossing and turning. Finally, I give up and turn on the light. I go over to the dresser to get my book and look in the mirror ... at David Bowie.
And no, I don’t mean my bed-headed, Thin White Duke-looking self. I mean David Bowie. In his sixties now, I think (Lynnie would know). Heavier, older, and very much amused by me.
“Just what the fuck,” he asks, “are you supposed to be?”
