Looks like Tom wrote it in 2004. I guess it means "too early". That would make sense from the context. Google only gives a few hits but they seem to agree with "too early". A very rare word, for sure. Might be good to change it to "too early", but it's not wrong, and the poet in me kind of likes "unbetimes" :-). - Heikki
