Army of Power

The iron men march on
Rending the earth from the sky
Landscape despoiled

I'm inclined to agree with Deborah. The poem is about the pylons and power cable which litter our countryside, in that context it fits as a haiku a bit better, thanks for the comments.

three actions..marching...rending...despoiling ...a single act of natural beauty frozen in time with line 3 usually a twist or cut or juxtaposition on the first 2 lines..this is what makes a haiku to me. You have written a powerful short verse.
