Why sincere rhymes the way it does
The phonology of sincere is a two-syllable core: the r-coloured schwa (/ษหr/), then it ends on a liquid that pulls the line forward. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 92 matches, family rhymes 0, additive and subtractive together 92, assonance 8,185, and consonance 419. 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. How to use it: hold the strict matches for the moments the listener expects, and use the slants to surprise where they don't. Sincere pairs especially well with assonance because the vowel column is deeper than the consonant column.
