Why supply rhymes the way it does
Supply sits on the high /ษช/, transcribed /ษช/ in our engine, and doesn't close on a consonant at all. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 187 matches, family rhymes 0, additive and subtractive together 2040, assonance 2,017, and consonance 0. 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. 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. Supply is a word where the slant choice almost always reads as more thoughtful than the obvious end-rhyme.
