Using "Battle" in Creative Writing

"Battle" brings texture to a lyric precisely because it is less worn-down by overuse than words that appear in every song. Unusual words create a small moment of attention in the listener's ear that a familiar word would slide past. The rhymes here include both perfect matches and near rhymes that preserve that distinctive quality.

Perfect Rhymes vs Near Rhymes

Perfect rhymes share the exact same ending sound. Near rhymes — also called slant rhymes or half rhymes — share a similar but not identical sound. Both types appear separately on this page. Perfect rhymes give a lyric resolution and completion. Near rhymes create a slightly off-balance feeling that many contemporary songwriters, poets, and rap artists prefer because it sounds less predictable.

Writing Prompt

Write a four-line verse that uses ""battle"" in a context a listener wouldn't predict. Unusual words earn their place by doing something the line genuinely needs.
