Why stalker rhymes the way it does
Stalker is built around the r-coloured schwa (/ษหr/); it's two-syllable and trails through a flowing liquid. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 7 matches, family rhymes 0, additive and subtractive together 36, assonance 5,055, and consonance 523. 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. Writing-tip: don't end every line with the strict rhyme. Use the slant columns at the joints and the strict matches at the seams. Stalker works hardest when the slant carries the verse and the strict match closes the chorus.
