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~~
