Haiku is walking quietly with a big stick or swinging wildly with a quiet calm. Simplicity and speed are the strengths of haiku, courted by prudence. Haiku is about getting things done, sizing things up, getting thee on. Economics is by contrast, even in Marxian hands, the science of prudence—the socially legitimizing grammar of what's low-cost, what's efficient. “Haiku economics” may then serve a purpose.
