Why jarring rhymes the way it does
Pull jarring apart phonetically and you get a two-syllable word with the clipped /ษช/ (/ษช/) as the rhyme-bearing vowel; the close lets the nasal carry the tail. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 7 matches, family rhymes 0, additive and subtractive together 83, assonance 7,692, and consonance 120. That's a narrow strict column with a very deep slant well beneath it. Modern songwriting reads those slants as rhymes; the ear has been trained on them for a century. 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 jarring, the slant work is doing more weight-bearing than it looks.
