Note: The Rictameter is all over the internet and the only site that specifies ending the poem with the first line is Shadow Poetry. (Wikipedia is just a copy and paste from Shadow Poetry.) I was unable to find the original source, Shadow Poetry doesn't claim it, and there are thousands of Rictameters out there that do not end with the same 2 syllable word as the first line. Therefore I would treat the element as optional.
