rhyming isn't bad, but it tends to create a crutch for the author sometimes. it either makes them think "well this rhymed, so its better than if it hadn't" which is never really the case. Or they think, "I want to say this but it doesn't rhyme so im going to contort this line till it sounds like hell, just as long as it rhymes"

Rhyme tends to take precendent over good writing...and thats just piss poor.
