Cold, hard shell,
Internally wet,
Nucleus of control,
Yet so easy to break,
Beaten to a scramble
And easy to fry,
Date stamp to see
Marks the day to die.
The brain and the egg
Are nearly the same,
Rolling around
In their own little game.
Used and discarded,
Replaced with new
Search deep inside,
The egg could be you.
