,&,&&,,&&, 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~~ ,,,&,&&,,,
