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~~
