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~~
