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~~
