Why blown rhymes the way it does
Blown is built around the round /ษ/ (/ษ/); it's one-syllable and ends on a humming nasal. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 138 matches, family rhymes 35, additive and subtractive together 355, assonance 4,823, and consonance 1283. That's a generous landscape on both axes. A song can stay in strict rhymes across a verse without repeating itself, then drop into family rhymes for the bridge. Writing-tip: don't end every line with the strict rhyme. Use the slant columns at the joints and the strict matches at the seams. Blown works hardest when the slant carries the verse and the strict match closes the chorus.
