I like this very much, very cleverly done.
There are a few different possibilities for how it could be read and the particularly choice of word in 'agrees' and it's own different meanings is what gives it so much scope for interpretations.
Nicely done,

That's metaphor for you, using the same thing twice, three times...
By our very nature we're nature and nature's, naturally, us.

Wonderful. This has so many implications at the same time is matter-of-fact.

Rocky-the-Cat pisses on the front door if I'm late in feeding him.
This is matter-of-fact; but, unlike your kind interpretation(s) of my haiku,
there's pretty much only one implication which my subconscious steadfastly
refuses to reveal unless I treat it to a madeleine dipped in tea.

I like it. It has a nice choice of words and sounds good to read with a good meaning to it.

I thought of this today, which means two things
1) My memory is not as bad as I thought it was.
2) My memory is not as bad as I thought it was.
oh and 3) this 'ku is rather excellent.

I wrote that?
I thought it was someone else's that I had just commented on and that you were
complimenting the wrong person. I was about to tell you your memory was indeed bad.
Then I went up to take a look at it. It seems I did write it.
My memory is as bad as I thought it was.
But if were right about it being mine, then you must be right about it being excellent.
Thanks
