Why beet rhymes the way it does
Beet is built around a tight high-vowel /iห/ (/iห/); it's one-syllable and lands on a closed syllable. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 115 matches, family rhymes 0, additive and subtractive together 180, assonance 4,480, and consonance 879. That's a deep perfect column. The song can ride strict rhymes from end to end, only sliding into assonance when the line needs to surprise. Practical guidance: read the song aloud and listen for where a slant would tighten the line. Strict rhymes are the structural skeleton; the slant columns are where the personality of the lyric lives. With beet, the slant work is doing more weight-bearing than it looks.
