By Midday, Gravity
When the day takes form
There comes a point in the day where things stop being open.
Not closed.
But defined.
Edges return.
Objects take their place again.
The air is no longer something you move through without noticing.
It begins to carry weight.
Not all at once.
Not as a burden.
But as a quiet accumulation of small things.
A decision.
A word.
A direction taken without much thought.
And slowly, the day becomes something you are inside of.
Something that asks.
Not loudly.
But consistently.
And even then, something remains underneath it.
A faint trace of where the morning began.
Not enough to hold onto.
But enough to remember.

The Mythical Poet (Al Konda) is a Romanian-English poet whose work unites form and fire. He writes in rhyme and symbolism, insisting that poetry must sing, speak, structure, symbolize, strike, and bring joy—the pillars of The Konda Principle, his philosophy of the art. Across 40+ books and countless performances, Al has cultivated a living, multimedia poetry: each poem arrives with a literary analysis, an essay for readers, a song or duet, and visual art bearing his sigil.
His mythic epic The Seer – Deluxe Edition rekindles the ancient vocation of the poet as seer; A Name I Never Spoke and Flame Without Shadow explore love, devotion, and inner transformation; ongoing daily releases blend classical poetics with modern production—YouTube premieres, blog essays, and social dialogues that invite audiences to sing the poem.
Al’s stance is clear: craft is not a cage but a sanctuary; beauty is not a costume but a covenant. In an age of noise and spectacle, The Mythical Poet offers disciplined music, moral clarity, and the courage to turn sorrow into song.
