Om, throttle, throttle, stand, stand, bind, bind, slay, slay, burn, burn, bellow, bellow, blast, blast

We are as neophytes within the hoary temple of the dead, the contemplators of all states of loathsomeness.
We dance with the denizens of the charnel ground in the glow of the funeral pyre beneath the black arch of desolate
night.
We are the skull-bearers who would dare to sound the thigh-bone trumpets to call forth our murdering shadows.
May their darkness eat at our flesh and thresh the profane body from subtle bones.
We are the consumers and we are the consumed.
We offer the horrid oblations of our skin.
We offer the dread libations of the blood of our hearts.
We sate Death?s shadow, that which ever hungers.
We call forth unclean eidolons. Husks of self.
Come ye forth from dens of inner depravation.
As we swirl in maddening frenzy through the midnight marshes to awake them in their ravenous and desperate hunger.
Our horns beseech the very Lord of Death to drive his trident through the three chambers of our existence.
In throws of ecstatic death we rend the fabric of the world.
To gaze with a fixed serpent iris into the darkness that is beyond darkness.

Oh Devi, without knowledge of thy power liberation is mere mockery!
Oh Devi-L, without knowledge of thy power liberation is mere mockery!
Speech of the Slaying Tongue.
Black breath of fire.
Burning wind of my mouth.
Raising shadow from pyre.
My self-murdering darkness.
Oh, famished ones come.
Heed the winds of dread will.
Hear the call of my tongue.
Fire as breathe I utter my end.
Bringing shadows of death to gnash and to rend!

2. Eater Of The Black Lead

Inexorable Death!
Thine eminence above man is the very countenance of the Devil.
I would make an altar of thine aspect.
I would speak thy true name with an act of silence.
I would come to be before thee by way of stillness and the Serpent eye
That I might know baptism within thy waters.
Death is thy name, yet I name thee God, for there is no other.
To thee I give my body like fodder to the grave and offer breath that hath become as the Serpents hiss
I exhale from my mouth the flame of an inner fire
The greater "I" becoming, and let my husk be filled with the wine of the abyss
I am the child of death and dreams who passes beyond death and dreams
Consummation with thy essence
I shall consume mine own death until I hath become the conqueror of death
The Eater of the Black Lead
I am the lampadiphor within the hidden chambers shinning with profound darkness
I am within Death and Death is within me.

3. Psychagogoi

Psychagogoi Gooi – I am the threne singer – Psychagogoi Gooi – whose song rouses death
Psychagogoi Gooi – All gnosis is learned – Psychagogoi Gooi – by the grave
Psychagogoi Gooi – I am the voice – Psychagogoi Gooi – of the tomb
Psychagogoi Gooi – Lament priest. Psychagogoi Gooi. Hermit of darkness

I am the threne singer whose song rouses Death from shadows
She partakes in my revere, and joins with me in cantor and in verse
For I am her muse, the sojourner of tomb incubation
Swathed in grave soil, ash and the shifting shadows of dusk
I wail my threnody with the sepulchral tongue of goetia
And open the gates of twilight to bare the tunnels of Night
It is here that in hymn I proclaim myself Death's neophyte and brave a black ocean that knows no shores
I am the dirge harpist whose song brings Death into my heart
She partakes of my flesh and joins with me in the stilling of the breath
For she is my gate the black ship upon the shore of my ascension.

4. Lucifer Trismegistus

Woe unto ye who aspire not unto the magistry of Death!
Ye are as food for the gods. Behold the Great Opposer, thou who art as Death!
Oh that I may become at one with mine „otherness? of being.
I seek the smagdarine crown jewel of the victorious conqueror of Eden, Lucifer Trismegistus, Janus-faced daimon
Thou who gazeth upon the Dark Abyss of Silence, Vast Depth of Nothingness, Great Void of Light beyond Light
Oh Highest One, Great Devourer, Universal Solvent, may I become at one with Thee!
Bring forth the Flame that cracks the clay and tears the soul to unite the deathless spirit with Death itself
Illuminate me with a scourge of burning cinders that strikes me with the causeless liberty of Thine unfathomable fantasy
The draconian perfection born from thy boundless rebellion
Yea, the Lie that speaks the Truth!
For to enter Thine steeping gulf is to rise unto and usurp the Throne of the highest
So may the inverted star that is Thine reflection boil my eyes until formless vision is given
Oh ye dazzling burner of shades and extinguisher of the fallen sparks.
Godless God, Traceless pilgrim of the Abyss, Nimbus of subterranean suns – Guide me to Thy bottomless peaks!

5. The Gnosis Of Inhumation

Death be my hierophant!
Lay bare the paths to the precipice.
I would endure the torment of black Eden's thorn strewn paths of ingress
I would bask in the shadow of the Tree of Death and pluck such terrible fruits from its vines to taste of their soma
I seek entrance to the Death-Mothers womb.
I am compelled towards her chasm which entraps and destroys all light and forms.
Oh matron of the aphotic and primordial night!
Thou art manifest and un-manifest, point of paradox.
Thou art the darkness of empty sky and the glutinous hollows of the earth
Bloated with corpses and slaked on blood-seed
I would enter with thee into fatal copulations
In wrath, pray you scourge my flesh and burn your gnosis upon my heart until my heart is naught but flame
Black Illuminatrix!
May I shine with brilliance within your darkness, from which my own shadow may arise
Cast across your form, a shadow that might endure in the absence of the radiant moment of its own becoming
I desire to be washed within the streams of the counter-current, within the provenance that heaves with the dispersion
of forms
To drink of the lentor of this chasm is to drink the libation of the Devil's grail
For to sate ones thirst from this cup is to gain the burning pathway
That trespasses beyond the binding circle of all eminences of an other.
Only then may one upraise one's hands towards the image of the Great Opposer
And pass through the mirror to become one with the reflection
That hath become one's own, one's absolute divinity.

6. The Angel Of Smokeless Fire

Oh merciless Titan!
I direct my vision upon Thy terrible glare, that our sight may conjoin as one
For I have crawled out from the wombgrave of silent serenity
Rested my burning tongue in the cold waters of oblivion
And placed a skull atop the staff of my ascension
Cloaked in starless night have I journeyed upon the mare of shadow
Across mountains made of childrens' bones unto the saturnian springs where
I washed the face off my soul. Soundless there, I plunged my sword into the knot of existence
With eyes covered in salt I beheld the Angel of smokeless fire, singing wordless hymns through the chthonian winds
Piercing his voice through my chest, void of heart, to awaken the pole unto which all iniquity is drawn
Pulsating with death-like vigor, I there was crowned upon a tomb crowded with the glimmering reflections upon the lunar
lakes
Eye gleaming with ancient terror stolen from the Abysmal sparks that dance above my anointed brow
The Throne of shameless murder be my seat, under which weight even the burden of life is crushed
Devouring the Word of reason to spew it into the bowels of the great Dragon, so that I may become Dumah
The angel of the silence of death, spreading the fourfold wings of solar Darkness across the blind mass called ALL.

7. Dreaming Above The Sepulcher

All hymns are hollow, unheard outside the gate of in-between and unbeknown
Fall like wounded birds from the heavens back unto the supplicant
Thus I slumber upon the threshold of death and dream the dreams of gods
It is here that I have sung my hymns into the mouths of the dead
That they may not rise but fall down and down through
The chambers of slumber and unto the darkness of death's ingress
Lamentation and evocations in the same cadence, resounding like the songs of Thessalian witches
And with bones snatched from the maws of ravening dogs I have mocked the cathedral's mason
Constructing an ill house of darkness mirrored within the birdless lake, a black mansion of dreaming Night
Within these dolente lands where the Incubi abound
I have chased the children of the psalm-singers from cyprus to tomb and jugulated them one by one
In my visions I have spilled the haimakuria within graven trenches dug by my nails from cemetery marle
I would dare to do more. I would will to go further. I would sit opposite the Lord of Slumber
Face down turned to gaze upon the cascading abyss
I would hear truths unspoken and un-scribed within silence
I would place death's crown upon my head and intone my will in a tongue of stygian threnodies
With cacophonous and mournful wails upon nightmare choruses of dying lepers falling before their graves
I would draw the gaze of my daemon self upon myself that I may murder myself and become my daemon
And move ever closer towards the incalculable totality of the Great Darkness that is the Supreme.

8. Via Tortuosa

The perfected will of the sojourner of the serpent's path is the will of Lucifer crowned, triumphant
It is the fulgurous diamond resplendent above the crowns of gods
Rapt in the burning catharsis of this enigma
Feed all fears and desires to the flames of a rising conflagration of the soul
In a rite of self-immolation, a sacrament of cleansing fire
The flesh is the furnace of sacrifice that bathes the dark of the abyss
In brilliant illumination so that one may behold the very face of the Devil who in turn is God
Who in turn is "I", engendered by naught but the radiance of the Absolute
Through the successions of descending chambers, chase the shadow of thy deific self through the sins of innumerable
trespasses
Pit thyself against the Black
Let all violations be devoid of revulsion and adoration that they may conquer and seal the quintessence of their
elemental forces within the "I"
The evocation and possession of all transgressions, sins and passions is a means to claim the Serpent's tongue one's own
With which one might proclaim "I am!" in fulmination before all pantheons
The naked will of the perfected sorcerer is the anathema of god, for the nimbus of immutable being
Engulfs all divinities like a radiant inferno casting a deathly shadow across the face of the world.

9. Old Night

Thou hermit of Old Night who wadest into the turbulence of the waters un-drowned
Who verily enters into death's magisterium without fear
Thou whose toil is the ineffable work of the abyss that draws forth the all slaying solve
Thou art amongst the deathless race of the kingless, beyond the provenance of god
In the light of Lucifer's dawn, thy shadow casts long and dim before thee
In the pitch of Noctifer's saturnine night thy shadow is the very face of the abyss
Oh vajra-hearted lord enthroned within the silence between the birth and death of every thought
In thronismos within the shadowed temple at the crux of the cruciform!
Yet shall the very abyss of thought be wholly illuminated by the gleam from thy morningstar lantern
The fruit plucked from the deepest root
To guide the pandemonion of self unto the scarlet hill of martyrdom, upon the path that even devas are cursed to tread
Thou hast withdrawn the husks of the most bitter seed and the garments from the gods themselves
To reach the hypostasis that is a black pearl dazzling the 7 aeons.
Betwixt the hammer and anvil of becoming is thy presence eternal that is in between-ness known as N.O.X.
Self-murderer and Self-begetter, with eyes fixed unto the cup of Djemscheed, thou breakest the chains forged by stellar
gravity
Oh, the motionless movement of Death!
With both the soberness of the Amethyst and the mad Satyr's ecstatic thirst, leap ye forth into the Mandala's center
The Point where sun and moon collide, crushed to lifeless splinters before ancient Night's hollow eye.
