I have my entire work on another site, and they are organized into folders by topic/theme. I'm trying to decide if I want to put them into folders, but treat them like they were part of a collection, much like a music CD. Since all I write are song style lyrics, I thought it might add more of a musical feel by doing that. Let me know if that might be a good idea for me to do or if I'm just being crazy.

That sounds logical to me, have you converted any of your poems into songs ? because it could be cool to have one as a song with a subset of poems that relate in some way

Unfortunately,  I lack the instrumental skills to fully convert my lyrics to songs. I was just wanting to group them into what you would see on an album so they would be like the tracks on the album.

One way to group an album of song lyrics is to post the album onto one post:



Use the name of your album as the title of the post, then post your lyrics under each other (leaving an appropriate space) naming the title of the songs above corresponding lyrics

Lepperochan has the best idea plus you you can add the albumn art work to add another dimension maybe spoken word for one track, I like it
