My friend is getting married, must I too?

By Shloime Richler

My friend is getting married, must I too?

My friend is getting married
must I too?
My friend makes millions on AI
must I too?
My friend talks to God each day
must I too?

I
you
must
is there such a thing
that must be?

Yet I
yet my friend
yet each soul
each set of eyes looking onto vast seas

Such perhaps is must
such of each sharp key.
