EMZ is correct, when it deals with human foibles it is a senryū.
"Senryū (川柳?, literally 'river willow') is a Japanese form of short poetry similar to haiku in construction: three lines with 17 or fewer total morae (or "on", often translated as syllables, but see the article on onji for distinctions). Senryū tend to be about human foibles while haiku tend to be about nature, and senryū are often cynical or darkly humorous while haiku are more serious. Unlike haiku, senryū do not include a kireji (cutting word), and do not generally include a kigo, or season word"

I don't quote Wiki as a primary source, but as I know this is correct, it is easy to cut and past.

I like this also (push out emotions like shit), although I would drop the coma. I would say this sounds like something a guy would say, but it could also apply to a lot of women. I've notice that woman who are the most emotionally labile, are generally lacking in honest emotion.
Best,

How long after picking up the brush, the first masterpiece?
The goal is not to obfuscate that which is clear, but make clear that which isn't.
