An Ode to Egg

Meet Iggy. He's mine.
Sweet sound of shell a-cracking
Stirs me from my sleep.
Tap tap tap tap crack crack crack
I lift my eyes to peep
At you so cleanly split to show
An orb of gold in white
Like the sun embraced by snow,
Glowing in broad daylight.
I hone my gaze upon your yolk,
Inhale its scent so warm.
I dance in circles at the sight
Of my Human breaking your form.
Now yellow crumbs, you line my bowl
I bow (wow) in reverence
Then ruthlessly devour you
And your eggy essence.

My Egg Face. Resist if you can.
