How does the use of the haiku structure in the poem contribute to it's meaning. (Poem below)

Knowledge and tools:

Chariot into auto;

Stick into shovel.

It is as simple

As a spoon or as complex

As the space shuttle

Once it was the wheel

Now it is the microchip

What will it be next?

(Technology Haiku by John P. Curtin)
