Wizard,

Now I am really confused. I don't see 5 - 7 - 5, the standard 17 syllable Haiku. Maybe it's the accent in my head, but those syllable counts aren't uniform on corresponding lines. For example, I would say “Holy Lord shall know it well" is seven syllables and "Bright before, brightest now" is six. Also, I see kiru or cutting of images with a kireji in between or any kigo (season reference).  See https://www.ahapoetry.com/aadoh/adofinde.htm
