EVERY WORD IS A NOTE
From Poetry to Songs
The Writer’s Command of SUNO
ISBN: 979-8-9999334-0-9, Published by Jack Lenzburg
Every Word Is a Note is both a memoir and a guide. In it, Anim Vox takes you on a creative journey from age 16 to 68, sharing decades of prose and poetry transformed into lyrics and music with Suno.
Through personal stories, poems, and reflections, you’ll see how love, loss, resistance, and discovery can become soundtracks. Alongside this memoir runs a practical guide for writers who want to:
-
Shape their own words into songs.
-
Explore rhythm, rhyme, and lyric structure.
-
Refine verses using Suno’s evolving tools.
-
Navigate the new frontiers of AI and creativity.
-
Discover the results through a curated playlist link to the music inspired by the lyrics of this book.
This is more than a manual. It is a living record of how writing, rhythm, and technology can work together.
Part memoir, part songwriting guide, this book shows how one writer turned a lifetime of words into music — and how you can too.
Harness the rhythm of language.
Shape your own sound.

NOTE: This playlist contains songs with the same lyrics presented in multiple musical styles, as well as songs that were not considered “perfect.” The discrepancies—both the hits and the misses—are discussed in my book, where we examine the progression from prose or poem to song, with respect to rhythm, rhyme, and other techniques used to guide SUNO toward a more musical output that suits our taste.
