Why power rhymes the way it does
Power is two-syllable, its rhyme-relevant vowel sitting on the /aส/ diphthong, then it ends on a liquid that pulls the line forward. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 14 matches, family rhymes 0, additive and subtractive together 27, assonance 1,152, and consonance 0. The empty consonance column tells you something โ the closing consonant of this word is rare enough that nothing else in English shares it cleanly. Slant work has to come from the vowel side instead. 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. Power is a word where the slant choice almost always reads as more thoughtful than the obvious end-rhyme.
