There are a total of 150 psalms, 50 of which the authorship is unknown, and King David wrote 73 of the 100 remaining psalms. John MacArthur in his Study Bible notes on Psalms says:
The comphrensive literary characteristic of the psalms is that they are all poetry par-excellence. Unlike most English poetry, which is based on rhyme and meter, Hebrew poetry is essentially characterized by logical parallelisms. Some of the most important kinds of parallelisms are:
1) synonymous (the thought of the first line is restated with similar concepts in the second line.
2)ntithetic (the thought of the second line is contrasted with the first.
3)climactic (the second and any subsequent lines pick up a crucial word, phrase, or concept and advance it in stair-step fashion.
4)chiastic or introverted (the logical units are developed in an A...B...B'...A' pattern.
....some psalms [are] acrostic or alphabetical in arrangement...
