The Amazing Resurrecting Cockroach

i'm the official cockroach buster in the english department.
whenever a cockroach is spotted in the toilet in our staffroom,
i'll be tasked to get rid of it.

the roaches in our staffroom are quite amazing.
they alway look like they've died,
lying on their backs.

but when i try to pick them up with tissue,
they will suddenly flip over
and attempt to make a desperate getaway.

either they were playing dead,
or they were half dead and semi-conscious.
somehow, when i try to pick them up with tissue,
they will resurrect and try to run away.
freaky!
