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~~
