,,~;**&### 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~~ #&*~,,,,,,
