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~~
