Altoids Haiku Vol. I

The Altoids Series
I
Work causes me stress
So I eat strong peppermints.
Altoids, you save me.
II
Am I an addict?
The empty tins will tell you
I depend on them.
III
New kinds of Altoids
Tangerine, citrus delights
Celebrate them, too.
IV
Tangerine Altoids:
Your new round tin is a pain,
But I like your taste.
V
O Song of Roland,
You are no match for these mints.
We will survive class.
VI
I ate the last one.
I am empty as the tin.
Now I crave more mints.
VII
These red and white tins,
What good are they to me now?
The Altoids are gone.
VIII
Collectible tins
With advertising pictures.
They make me smile.
IX
You know you want one.
They are there to be consumed.
You will be happy.
