Without you

Without you,
I'm a chipmunk
collecting seeds
but with no place to keep them safe
or a squirrel 
with severe nut allergies
or a lactose-intolerant calf
a gluten-sensitive cookie monster
a wall of lead with heavy-metal poisoning
cocaine without any high
a hangover without headache
or a headache without any pain
Without you!
