Mostly fun and completely surreal. Many poems are also deep and heart-wrenching, too. CAConrad has a peculiar sense of humor or brutality disguised as humor that leaves one feeling disturbed in their epiphanies.

CAConrad is one of my favorite poets! For me he's like Eileen Myles in that I know I can invite basically anyone to a reading of his with utter confidence that they will have a good time and thank me for it. Same goes for his book. Read his blog: phillysound.blogspot.com.
