Why flair rhymes the way it does
Pull flair apart phonetically and you get a one-syllable word with the rhotic schwa (/ษหr/) as the rhyme-bearing vowel; the close ends on a liquid that pulls the line forward. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 71 matches, family rhymes 0, additive and subtractive together 94, assonance 8,212, and consonance 476. 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 flair, the slant work is doing more weight-bearing than it looks.
