This is a highly-acclaimed epic poem by Cassandra Swan written in an intense phase of writing in 2005 with music and sound effects added through a long distance collaboration with music composer from the USA, Gashaus Dogg. This work is written in the new literary/poetic style I developed: "Graphorrhoealism", which is a fusion of poetry, psychology(sometimes technical terminology), philosophy, and often prophecy! Written with an unbridled love of language, this unique work has been described in reviews as a work of "genius".

J0B DESCRIPTION (The Confessional Poet)

This was written in 2000/1. A highly acclaimed, controversial, 18 stanzas, free verse theory on the life and suicide of American Poet Sylvia Plath. 
Extensive Notes are available on request. This theory was mentioned in The TLS diary and nominated for an award in 2001. This diverse work is set to be a collaboration to develop a choreographed stage and film performance in the future.

CANDY COTTON KID AND THE FAUSTIAN WOLF - (A theory on life+suicide of Sylvia Plath)

This is A RADICAL and OUTSPOKEN POEM about the Catholic Church and Paedophile Priests. These Priests get away with child sexual abuse and most often go without accountability for their vile crimes! Even after confessing the Catgholic Church do not break the seal of silence, therefore they harbour criminals! The Vatican are a law unto themselves and somehow this has to be challenged and changed because they give their paedophile priests sick Papal immunity at present.

PSYCHODYNAMICS OF A POET'S SARCOPHAGOGIC WINTER

An Internationally acclaimed, award-winning poet/revolutionary/activist/screenwriter/playwright/PhD student (Specialising in metaphysical parapsychology)
/artist/visionary/spiritual+physical+trance medium/clairvoyant/former hypnotherapist, PLR/psychovisual therapist/biofeedback analyst. Her poetry is in the South Bank Centre Poetry Library, London, and has been featured on BBC Radio and regularly on the discerning: www.audiobookradio.net. She has been widely published in poetry magazines and gained outstanding reviews for her challenging, innovative poetry. She was always seeking to bring her beguiling poetry to an audience in ways that overlook outmoded, traditional, conventional forms. She collaborated with composers, DJ's and artists online. Often referred to as: "The Underground Poet Laureate", she developed her own Literary and Poetic Style known as: "Graphorrhoealism", which, once again, defies traditional forms in the most innovative way, with an insatiable, unbridled lust for language she explores confessional and political landscapes that often collide. Her work has been hailed as works of "genius" by Honorary Professors. Cassandra has also worked with Turner Prize nominee artists Jake and Dinos Chapman and Sam Taylor-Johnson in the 1990s in work subsequently featured in Saatchi exhibitions and international venues. Her couture standard hand embroidery has been exhibited in Fine Art Galleries and her controversial performance art exhibition staged in London. Cassandra has composed 2 major Poetry Collections and 2 Slim Volumes. She had interest from film Producers to write 4 Screenplays and had a Director/Producer for her true story, and these productions were destined to include her raw and powerful poetry which tells her story but her health is unlikely to manage this huge undertaking at this time. Her recordings are Selected Poems 2006 and her Tribute to her muse and mentor in spirit, Vladimir Mayakovsky "The Panjandrum of Quondam (The Epic Grenade)" 2005. "The Warring Harridan" 2005. "Candy Cotton Kid and The Faustian Wolf" 2000/1 a theory on the life and suicide of American poet Sylvia Plath.  Cassandra had some of her shorter soundtracks in pre-production as short films, but COVID - and her own health - annihilated all collaborations. She was also chosen to collaborate  with an international ballet academy - online -  from the USA to choreograph a ballet based on her epic poem about Sylvia Plath, but the pandemic struck and that collaboration was also destroyed by the choreographer's mother's death and his continued long Covid. She had interest from another ballet academy for a choreographed performance based on her Russian themed epic poem about Russian poet, Vladimir Mayakovsky, but this was also destroyed by the pandemic and a change of management. 

She wrote a 300-page memoir about many controversial experiences that remains unpublished by choice at this stage.

She was invited to perform her tribute to Mayakovsky in Russia, but her failing health would not permit that journey.
