Very well written, though it left me hungry for an explanation, a back story of some sort, and deeper understanding into the character of the protagonist, who or what he was. I could see this as an excellent metaphor into consumer culture, but it didn't have any details in the narrative to allude to that.

Have you read The Troop by Nick Cutter? This really reminded me of it. It also reminded me of Stephen King's Survivor Type.

The last line also brought to mind Ouroboros, the ancient and multi-cultural symbol of a snake devouring itself, first appearing in the ancient Egyptian Enigmatic Book of the Netherworld. Did you have Ouroboros in mind at all when writing this?
