Not sure if correct, (proly not) but I think AB rhyme =

A
B
A
B

Where A and A rhyme.

EXAMPLE:

known as king of the terran
Master and commander of the space
the one who subdued the kerrigan
his name is boxer, he owns your base

And then next stanza
Multiply your efforts.

12 lines AB... does it have to be a sonnet? (Also AB = A rhymes with A, B rhymes with B, but they alternate (ABAB))

there are more types of rhyming that words that sound the same. slant rhyme, eye rhyme, are two examples.

[note: in no way do i promise this to make any sense what soever, and yes, I realise the last part is not ABAB]

I had a little larva
I found him to be cute
Inspired by his father
He morphed into a boot

Oh, but "why a boot?" you say
With vehemence in your voice
Surely ultra is the way
The manliest of choice.

The larva does not care for you
Your plead to him is moot
He wants to be just like his dad
He wants to be a boot.

FYI, boots have +3 base carapace and can evolve into pie. So don't be too critical.
Oh no

Thought of this one while dropping a shit:

Savior Savior Savior
Never was one who was braver
Filled anger hate and greed
He brought down the Zergs Decree

From the tiniest ling
To the mutalisk flying thing
From Ultralisk
To Hydralisk

As the dark swarm lies
The terran commander cries
The Maestro is on his way
To win the zerg another day


IDK if that one will though..

Through the coming storm comes a man
Dodging strikes to the left and the right
Leading his comrades over the blight
Claiming the land in the name of Terran.

That invisible hand in the sky guiding he,
Maniacal speed and reflexes of lightning,
He is one who will always keep Hwaiting,
They call this warrior Yun-Yeol, Lee

He takes on opponents without a botha
Guiding his armies of flesh and steel
With such tactical genius it seems unreal
Victory is sure: defeat, Nada.

Sending out four working mates
To start a rax near the edge of base
Lifting them up, he elevates
and floats them to his opponent's place

Unawares of his hovering bane
The zerg's commander never suspects
The landing of the buildings that train
four fiersome fiery firebats

They burn down the sunken, half way done
And gather their team mates who join the scene
The slaughter has only just begun
and Boxer rules supreme

"Dude, wtf?", you might say.
It's what we call a pimpest play

If you can keep your head when all about you
Are losing theirs and blaming it on you,
If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you
But make allowance for their doubting too,
If you can wait and not be tired by waiting,
Or being lied about, don't deal in lies,
Or being hated, don't give way to hating,
And yet don't look too good, nor talk too wise:
If you can dream--and not make dreams your master,
If you can think--and not make thoughts your aim;
If you can meet with Triumph and Disaster
And treat those two impostors just the same;
If you can bear to hear the truth you've spoken
Twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools,
Or watch the things you gave your life to, broken,
And stoop and build 'em up with worn-out tools:

If you can make one heap of all your winnings
And risk it all on one turn of pitch-and-toss,
And lose, and start again at your beginnings
And never breath a word about your loss;
If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew
To serve your turn long after they are gone,
And so hold on when there is nothing in you
Except the Will which says to them: "Hold on!"

If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,
Or walk with kings--nor lose the common touch,
If neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you;
If all men count with you, but none too much,
If you can fill the unforgiving minute
With sixty seconds' worth of distance run,
Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it,
And--which is more--you'll be a Man, my son!
