No Problem - No Solution
It's a real dilemma finding a resolution
To the problem given as an assignment -
To wit: 'finding a solution'.
You could call it non-poetic alignment.
If you scanned all of Shakespeare to Emerson's time,
(Fairly most poets in the medium),
I doubt you'd find 'solution' even for the rhyme -
The word is a non-conductor - too plebian.
Such words belong to widely different genres -
Mathematics or behavioral psychology,
Disciplines not given to subtle entendre.
If anywhere in verse, perhaps a neo-modern anthology.
Far be it for me to dismiss ideas out of hand -
'Solution' might figure in a poem - it just wouldn't be grand.
