Indifferent Bird depicts the nights I spend awake thinking about Crohn’s. I usually can’t sleep, so I often sit outside on my balcony listening to music and thinking about everything that’s going on. It’s good for me. I recharge. I ready myself. Every once in a while, I see animals while I’m out at night. Usually rats and pigeons, but sometimes rabbits and opossums. This night, I was particularly far into my head when a robin landed on the rail and sat there for quite a while. I felt like it was a sign that the universe had my back and was supporting me. I tried talking to the bird and offering it a chip, but it just sat there and stared. Eventually, it flew away and I was left feeling more alone than I had before. Thanks universe!
