Words that rhyme with Spore
Spore reads as a household-word on the page; phonetically it's one-syllable, anchored on the back /ษหr/, ending where it flows into the next line via a liquid. It's an unremarkable word until the verse asks it to do something. From the rhyme-data side: you won't run short of perfect rhymes, family rhymes come up empty, and the vowel-only slant pool is deep enough to write a whole album from. From the lyric side, it works as a common-tongue word. Use the strict rhymes for the structural beats and let slant rhymes do the interior work.

Why spore rhymes the way it does
Spore sits on the back /ษหr/, transcribed /ษหr/ in our engine, and flows into the next line via a liquid. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 74 matches, family rhymes 0, additive and subtractive together 367, assonance 4,504, and consonance 533. 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. Spore pairs especially well with assonance because the vowel column is deeper than the consonant column.
