#Poem The Unpossessed
The Unpossessed

She slides with auras never seen,
Through space just labelled aetherless,
With interferometry rising
to a wave or particle of light,
That charms the arch and artless,
Of this uncaring set.

She does not plan or caution,
But watches these pathetic shells,
Like a silent owl auditioning,
White and still to contrast easy craft,
With outclassed passions,
Sincerity and love in flight 

She has sharpened all her wits,
Along with tooth and claw and brush,                                                                                  
And raised like an iron bridge in hell,
Spanning the poisoned streams,
Paints the truth with sober ease,
All suitors weightless over Psyche. 

The gates lie stripped and smashed,
Scattering corrosion in the gardens,
The lawns have lost their borders,
To the fading of the founding light,
Her life though, is well-defined,
An ending written in her manifest.

Been absolutely pinned to this for the past few days. THIS is the book to introduce anyone to my Muriel Spark, the author I have so long adored. Complex, compelling, challenging, and an utter joy - impossible to pin down to a single definition. @drjamesbailey.bsky.social understands her implicitly.

Prompted by @bookwormjan.bsky.social - I'm doing the Glasgow 30 Day Film challenge! 🎥🎬 Day 1 - A film set in a location you would like to go to.

Took a wrong turn somewhere @louisehawxwell.bsky.social!
A sign amidst some overgrown plants saying 'Wormskirk', a pun on the place name Ormskirk. Little bug images are decorating the sign.

In bits leaving my wonderful P4 class yesterday, but they made me feel incredibly loved. I'm so proud of them and everything they've achieved, and I'm excited to check in with them when I return for my P6 placement!

Had a really positive observed lesson in numeracy today! It was amazing to have the opportunity to showcase the fantastic learning P4 have been doing, as well as the collaboration and support of my wonderful mentor. So much to tell everyone on #UOEPGDEp when we're back at Moray House! ✨️📚❤️

Best of luck to my #UoEPGDEp friends starting placement today. I'm sure I'm not the only one who's a bundle of nerves, but you're all such wonderful people and you're going to be amazing! ❤️👩‍🏫🎒

Pluraliteracies week at #UOEPGDEp has been inspiring, thought-provoking, and joyful. The little space-obsessed child in me especially loved learning how to sign the solar system in BSL so much that I've been sharing it with anyone who'll watch. 🌙💫🌠🌍🪐

Had so much fun introducing a little bit of scouse history to our social studies today, through the incredible Kitty Wilkinson. You can take the girl out of Liverpool but... #UoEPGDEp

Had a LOT of fun learning how to teach mechanisms for #UoEPGDEp today - hopefully our future students will have as much fun as we did!

My towel elephant (prep for this week of #UoEPGDEp, not just a new hobby) turned out looking more like a strange dog, but I love him anyway!

Huge thanks to the person who donated these lovely shoes to the Swap Shop and saved me from having to wear my broken boots all the way back to Liveroool. One of my favorite things about the #MHPGDEp group is how unbelievably kind they are, and how well everyone looks out for each other! ❤️✨

Holding onto that sense of wonder on my evening walk, thinking how lucky we are to live in such a unique space and even taking a detour to see the city through the eyes of a furry friend! 🐾 #RMEDrift

Had so much fun discovering how creative my friends are in our technology workshop today, exploring how easy it is for kids to have fun while also exploring what it means to be sustainable, responsible citizens! ♻️

A lovely, sunny afternoon with friends on our #RMEDrift, exploring our local area and how space outside of the classroom can complement and enhance learning.

Week three of the PGDE over in the blink of an eye! Have enjoyed being creative, having interesting conversations about space and belonging in modern Scottish classrooms, and of course trying out some fun science experiments! 🧪 Feeling very lucky and loved my new PGDE family, too. ❤️

Had a really inspiring time exploring and creating at the gallery this morning, alongside some fantastic and important conversations about decolonizing art and making it accessible and exciting for all children! 🎨🖌️🎭

After years of admiring looks at model shows I am making my own very first steps into the world of modeling by ALMOST burning my neck, but I now have some pieces of a locomotive, all of my fingers (still), and a very strong sense of pride. 🚂✨

Can't BEGIN to say how much I've enjoyed my first week at Moray House. What a brilliant start to what I can already tell is going to be a fun, challenging, inventive, and life-changing year. ✨
