it's the 'stuff of life',
the endless ebb and flow
leading inexorably to death.

5, 7, 5 is the traditional English interpertation of Haiku structure, but truthfully, in Japan, it's only the number of syllables that matters, not necessarily how they are structured.

Your signature: to err is human; to screw up completely, divine!
(and, for everything else, there's Mastercard!)

It looks as though you are enjoying this. Laughing

ok, I'm gonna hike up my pants & wade through this mess! The last line in question is:
"leading to instant death."
I will now be taking poetic licnese:

leading to "quick" death
is what writing haiku does
when you're BoGoWo.

knives from in your back!
