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~~
