egg  eater       
                               
                                          
                                          
 absolutely spherical  egg.  find  it  on 
    large sandy beaches, upshore where    
 dunes  meet  shadowy  pines.  teal  egg, 
                                          
 makes  some  sentient   bird  or   other 
    warm-blooded creature. lanky meat,    
 incredible meat inside, mostly tendons.  
           slithery but strong.           
                                          
 the  egg  has an opening. the egg  has a 
 belly  button.  looks   like  a   rubber 
 vortex, the crust  gets soft and becomes 
                 a hole.                  
                                          
                        
                                          
 and   on   these   beaches   there's   a 
     particular snake or lizard which     
 certainly  eats   insects  most  of  the 
 time, but  it knows a good belly  button 
 when it  sees  one, and knows  to  enter 
                 the egg                  
                                          
 it will  crawl  into  the  teal  sphere, 
 disappear completely and  eat it all up, 
 ruining  the  integrity   of   the  egg. 
        destroying the inhabitant.        
                                          
 it's  a  grisly  sight  when  it  cracks 
 open,  the  reptile  taking   the  quick 
  exit, emerging bloodied and victorious  
              and satisfied~~
