Why cracker rhymes the way it does

In our engine, cracker registers as a two-syllable word on the /ษœหr/ vowel (/ษœหr/) that trails through a flowing liquid. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 21 matches, family rhymes 0, additive and subtractive together 13, assonance 6,638, and consonance 671. The empty family column matters less than it looks. Family rhymes are a strict-classifier construct; the songwriter's ear accepts most assonance matches in their place. 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. Cracker rewards slant rhyming because the strict pool, when over-used, calls attention to itself.
