A friend posted this graph from an article in The Economist about the decline of rhyme in modern english poetry.  You will likely need a subscription to actually read the article, but I included it for those that do.

I am agnostic about whether it is good or bad.  I do think the attempt at rhyme is responsible for most bad poetry.
