Roly Poly

Holy moly, roly poly! Our favorite potato bug was so destined by our mentor and creator, Mrs. Visconti, who declared during a presentation on religion by the sow bug "There's that passive nature!" And so she has proved herself to be, despite vehement protests most notable in another presentation on Russian literature. But she cannot mask her true nature any more than she can mask her love for V.

Passivity is on display and recorded forever as she retreats into a dark corner.

The poly's face emerges, but she remains within that green body-shell to keep her sense of security.

Here we see an event rarely recorded in the natural world because of the shyness of the bugs: the roly poly feeding!

This is the queen of the roly poly hive. She sits atop her throne with a regal and condescneding expression. For she picked her crown out ofthe gutter with her antennae and placed it on her head.
