Sites to help:
RhymeZone.com
Thesaurus.com
Merriam-Webster.com Use this site for syllables. I’ve used several online counters and too many have given different counts for the same word, so I use the dictionary now. Also, in some parts of the English speaking world, the syllables may come out in the spoken language a bit differently. And that’s okay. Write to enjoy, too learn, and yes, try to get the syllables right, but above all create and enjoy.

Heat Dominion
No lightning, no thunderous clap,
just a tormenting stretch of heat,
little shade, no place to retreat,
each movement, a boiling death wrap.
Our earth needs a better mousetrap,
a climate reboot, a new way
to salvage time, life, save the day,
for nothing yet has won our hearts,
our riven political parts:
human folly, a dragon to slay.
