Is it "OK" to rhyme homonyms?
No. Not even if you're David Bowie writing Starman.
It always felt wrong to rhyme them. I like to make up rhymes as a distraction while I'm working around the house and I can't tell you how many times my wife has heard me say something like "I can't rhyme road with rode!" :)
