Here is an experiment using just the diary entries from a particular day--in this case, today, March 16. First I go through the entries sequentially and extract words and phrases that are musical and begin to form verses and choruses. The "from time to time" line became a repeating phrase, perhaps sung as a background voice, or sung antiphonally. Then I choose other lines based on the established groove. You can play around with the order, and eventually, it begins to gather meaning. Once you have the song structure, you can swap out lines with other words; you don't ultimately have to use the original text at all. You can also use ChatGPT to find other words and phrases to complete the lyric. In essence what you're doing is using your own algorithm for writing lyrics and songs, which to me is more interesting and satisfying.
