This epic poem reveals postmodern tendencies with that of Walt Whitman, John Asbery, Sylvia Plath, Gary Snyder, Reeta Dove of America, W.H. Auden, Dylan Thomas, Philip Larkin, Ted Hughes, Michael Ondaatje, Margaret Atwood and Paul Muldoon. The speaker in the poem tries to free himself from the postmodern world in The Departure of Time, tries to locate certainty in flux, decision in indecision. After Declaration of a New God, Proposal for a New World looks to the post - postmodern tendency with that of Serbian Nikola Kitanovic, Italian Umberto Saba and American experimental poet Robert Lax. The epic lambastes the vices and underscores the peace and humanity in the world the poet proposes.
