Come Back for a Little Bit is a surreal and daydreamy collection asking the question "what if?" in the face of momentous grief. What if we got to opt out of time and stay holed up in our childhood bedroom forever? What if we got to avoid the worst things to happen to us? Is that worth missing out on the best? Interwoven with grief are themes of queerness, OCD, panic, longing, and becoming oneself not out of choice but out of necessity to survive. The determination to feel alive is palpable with lines like, "If I couldn't see the sun, I'd cut it out from construction paper" and the assurance that, despite the darkness, "everything the sun made is still here.
