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~~
