Rhymes

The pig, if I am not mistaken,
Gives us ham and pork and bacon.
Let others think his heart is big.
I think it stupid of the pig.
~ Ogden Nash

What do you use to cover a hogback? Easy. A blanket. Pigs in a blanket. Or maybe a cloak? Pork in a cloak? 

Pork and cloak don't rhyme but they almost sorta do. That's called a slant rhyme. It's also called a "those words don't rhyme."
