Why pisces rhymes the way it does
Pisces sits on the mid /ษ/, transcribed /ษ/ in our engine, and lets the line dissolve into a fricative. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 58 matches, family rhymes 0, additive and subtractive together 117, assonance 10,363, and consonance 442. 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. What matters when you're writing: the ear forgives slants in service of meaning. If the strict rhyme is the predictable word, the assonance match will usually hit harder. Pisces is a word where the slant choice almost always reads as more thoughtful than the obvious end-rhyme.
