Why timor rhymes the way it does
Timor is two-syllable, its rhyme-relevant vowel sitting on the /ษหr/ vowel, then it ends on a liquid that pulls the line forward. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 71 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. The songwriter's move is to pick a small set of strict rhymes for the chorus and open up to family and assonance through the verses. Timor rewards slant rhyming because the strict pool, when over-used, calls attention to itself.
