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~~
