Haiku and Nature

Haikus have to speak of nature with the use of kigo (japanese for nature word). If they don't, then what are these poems I am writing called. Senryu? Any ideas?

Another One Bites the Dust

from CNN.com, Man dies after police jolt him with stun gun

What’s the difference
Between lasers and tasers?
Much less laser deaths

Sharks with taser guns?
Would electrocute themselves
They are in water

Pull out the Taser
Another man bites the dust
Don’t blame the discharge

The Taser people
spend more money on PR
or on user safety?

Are These Posts Haikus or Senryus?

Since I am not speaking exclusively of nature or humanity, these posts can be anything you want them to be. However, most of the poems I have posted so far imply ironic and satirical situations, making them more like senryus than haikus. I think I also focus more on the "ahhhh" moment than the topic itself.
