The above poem is Senryu Poetry, not a Haiku poem.
Description of Haiku – Senryu (also called human haiku) is an unrhymed Japanese verse consisting of three unrhymed lines of five, seven, and five syllables (5, 7, 5) or 17 syllables in all. Senryu is usually written in the present tense and only references to some aspect of human nature or emotions. They possess no references to the natural world and thus stand out from nature/seasonal haiku

The poetry is a Haiku, but there is a difference, that is why I add the info when I know it isn’t a real Haiku but Senryn poetry.
Real haiku is a vision you can see, that’s something to do with nature.

So funny!! Story of my life! I’ve read it as a reminder to lose some weight. Although I can see it in a more serious way too. Good one, Elsie!
