Squinting into oncoming headlights, Curtis slapped his own face. Falling asleep was a constant fear.
Curtis could swear the headlights were eyes. One car winked at him as it passed. He glanced at the instruments. Keeping your eyes moving is the way to stay alert.
The speedometer said 70 and the sleepometer said he was wide awake. Sleepometer?
He looked back to the windshield and saw he was flying 1,000 feet off the ground. A traffic cop riding a swan was motioning him to pull over.
Cutis awoke with a start and swerved back into his lane, just in time.
