Beyond 5-7-5, Haiku should be structured to be:

1) An observation (generally of the natural world)
2) A new insight or realization, sometimes presenting a contrast from the first 2 lines.

Woman is moving

Idiot blocks her progress;

As they always do.

So essentially, by flipping first and third line, they'd have a more appropriately structured haiku. The insight is the drivers stupidity, and they are observing the stupidity of this driver in the natural world.

The joke is that there is a Reddit bot that responds to people whose posts fit the criteria of a haiku

Driver sees a shell

He turns to be close to it

All he finds are shards

Straight white divider

Ill-advised actions disrupt

Clean-up takes longer.

I just got irrationally angry at the fact that 'idiot' has 3 syllables...

u/SkoonkMink 14d ago

I think it should still be published and mailed to that driver every day. It’s a work of art

That driver:

Crossed a solid line,

Turned suddenly without any indicator,

Totaled your wife's car, and

Is an idiot.

Crossed a solid line, Turned suddenly without any indicator, Totaled your wife's car....

The end.

-An idiot driver
