This is inspired by a Rolling Stone interview with Eminem, in which this statement comes from:

How do you go about putting together a rhyme?
EMINEM: Even as a kid, I wanted the most words to rhyme. Say I saw a word like "transcendalistic tendencies." I would write it out on a piece of paper -- trans-cend-a-list-ic ten-den-cies -- and underneath, I'd line up a word up with each syllable: and bend all mystic sentence trees. Even if it didn't make sense, that's the kind of drill I would do to practice.


SO THIS GAME IS RHYMING AS MANY WORDS AS POSSIBLE!

DA RULES:
-- One line per person. You might be good at rhyming, but save some fun for others.
-- Each line must rhyme with as many words from the previous line as possible. They don't have to be syllable to syllable, but they should be pretty close.
-- The verses have to be coherent and relevant to each other, as if telling a story or giving a narrative.
-- There must be at least three rhymes in the line for it to count. This is to keep up creativity.
-- NO STUMPING! A line like "The purple month of silver and orange" doesn't have any rhymes, and makes the game no fun.

Questions? Ask 'em. I'll get to them.

While weeding the cook, and hiding a lentil. (Does that even rhyme correctly? :smt017 )

Miles fleeting this took, for finding May rentals...? (I think I may suck at this xD)
Suppose for a moment that the heart has two heads, that the heart has been chained and dunked in a glass booth filled with river water. The heart is monologuing about hesitation and fulfillment while behind the red brocade the heart is drowning. - R.S

Rhyme needing a look, minding to maintain the sentence real.

Time, reading through books, is winding up an immense ordeal.
