Why bogged rhymes the way it does
Pull bogged apart phonetically and you get a two-syllable word with the front /ษ/ (/ษ/) as the rhyme-bearing vowel; the close lands on a closed syllable. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 3 matches, family rhymes 17, additive and subtractive together 77, assonance 7,095, and consonance 45. The mix gives you options across the board. Strict rhymes for the structural beats, family or assonance for the interior lines. The songwriter's move is to pick a small set of strict rhymes for the chorus and open up to family and assonance through the verses. Bogged rewards slant rhyming because the strict pool, when over-used, calls attention to itself.
