Why sikhs rhymes the way it does
The rhyme map for sikhs starts at the vowel — the tight /ɪ/, IPA /ɪ/ — and ends where the line ends in a hissed consonant. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 0 matches, family rhymes 0, additive and subtractive together 51, assonance 11,231, and consonance 2. 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. In the room with a guitar: write toward the strict rhyme first, then go back through and replace the obvious ones with the assonance matches that earned their place. Sikhs is a word that benefits from the second pass.
