What is it about?

A literary memoir essay illustrating the implications for the art of poetry of J. T. Fraser's Time theory and the work of the International Society for the Study of Time. The essay contextualizes its subject in the unique conversational medium of the ISST, and asks the question "What does 'mean' mean?", given the challenge that contemporary time theory poses to both traditional theology and contemporary philosophy. If Time is the process of evolutionary emergence in itself, both on the macrocosmic and microcosmic levels, what are the consequences for a meaningful human life? If Time can no longer be seen as a container of reality but as its emerging product, how should the University curriculum be modified? Can poetry be a more effective way of handling such issues than discursive prose?
