Internal rhyme

In poetry, internal rhyme, or middle rhyme, is rhyme that occurs in a single line of verse.

Internal rhyme occurs in the middle of a line, as exemplified by Coleridge, "In mist or cloud, on mast or shroud" or "Whiles all the night through fog-smoke white," in "The Rime of the Ancient Mariner." "Edgar Allan Poe's poem "The Raven" also exhibits internal rhyme:

    Once upon a midnight dreary, while I pondered, weak and weary,
Over many a quaint and curious volume of forgotten lore,
         While I nodded, nearly napping, suddenly there came a tapping,
As of some one gently rapping, rapping at my chamber door.
"'Tis some visitor," I muttered, "tapping at my chamber door —

Internal rhyme is also used extensively in modern hip hop music, having been pioneered by seminal artists such as Kool Moe Dee, and Rakim, as demonstrated in the latter's piece, "My Melody":

My unusual style will confuse you a while
If I were water, I'd flow in the Nile
So many rhymes you won't have time to go for your's
Just because of applause I have to pause
Right after tonight is when I prepare
To catch another sucker-duck MC out there
My strategy has to be tragedy, catastrophe
And after this you'll call me your majesty...

Another prominent hip hop artist who uses internal rhymes is AZ, as shown in "The Hardest":

Im the rap James Bond
my crack case gone
got it cuffed in the court
had my mac face on
funny walk money talk told Black stay calm
we up north like a boss tatted half his arms
slid his mom 7 grand told her hold that down
we fam it go low then i roll back 'round
am as vicious as the realest you know
only difference is consistence im considered a pro
from the trenches 'till im dead and inches below
its not a game hear the name bet it's mentioned wit dough you never know

Method Man has also been known to extensively use internal rhyming, in the first verse of "How High, Pt. 2"

Tical shittin again, spittin to win
Load they guns clip in the end, none sicker than him
Yes indeed, I'm ill as any STD's or sex disease
These dirty rats want extra cheese
On that piece of the pie nowm ask me how high
I tell ya reach for the sky blame the crooked letter I
That's my home, 23's wrapped in chrome
Not only snap on y'all niggas but I'll snap dem bones
Slap your dome, make you leave that crack alone
You got the, key to the city but the latch is on
I got's it locked, bringin the noise bringin the Funk Doctor Spock
Bringin my boys bringin you lungs,
Pop the glock but only if you feel this shit
Jack The Ripper, don't make me have to kill this bitch
Back to get'cha put it in check that's the mista
Meth with his wood on your neck, shut your lips up
