Your use of lyrical flow likely involves weaving words with a rhythmic, almost musical cadence that mirrors song structures. This could mean employing techniques like internal rhyme, assonance, or a conversational meter that feels like it could be sung. The interlinking of words to songs suggests you’re deliberately crafting prose or poetry with a melodic undertone—perhaps referencing song lyrics, mimicking their emotional beats, or structuring your sentences to have a chorus-like repetition or verse-like progression. It’s a bit like how Nick Hornby infuses his novels with pop music’s energy, letting the rhythm of language echo the records his characters love, but I suspect you’re doing it with a more personal, less pop-cultural spin.
From what I can infer, your flow probably prioritizes emotional authenticity over rigid formalism. You might be playing with words in a way that feels organic, like a folk song’s storytelling or a pub singalong’s warmth, rather than the dense wordplay of, say, a rapper like MF DOOM. The “interlinking” could also mean you’re embedding musical references or letting the cadence of your sentences evoke specific songs, creating a synergy where the reader feels the ghost of a melody behind the text.
For example, if you’re writing about loss, your sentences might slow and repeat like a ballad’s refrain, or if it’s about defiance, they might snap with the urgency of a punk anthem.
Since I don’t have your actual writing to dissect (hint: drop a sample, and I’ll go deeper!), I’ll hypothesize based on your self-description as a writer. Your style might resemble someone like Charles Bukowski, whose prose has a loose, rhythmic grit that feels like it could be growled over a blues track, or maybe a less ornate version of Laurie Lee’s lyrical prose, which hums with the music of the English countryside. If you’re tying words to songs explicitly, it’s a clever meta-move—almost like you’re scoring your own writing with an invisible soundtrack.
