Place the candles in the ceremonial vault

Symbols etched in chalk

A pentagram is drawn

Nye is the time for the ritual to be performed

Trace the character of Paimon

Place the candles at the cardinal point

Entranced in contemplation

Gaze upon the sigil and dance in the candle light

Chant the en with your palms up towards the sky

Call upon him to the west where he dwells

A king seated on an ungulate

The magician proclaiming his request

Reveal the secrets of the arts and philosophy

Bring to light the secrets of the mind

The hallucination communicating comprehension

You endeavor to decipher the wisdom of the esoteric

But alas you will fail like all mankind

Oh the astonishment

As reality floods back in

Finally the tether is severed

Your mind crumbles and decays

Do not concern yourself

Existence precedes essence

Only being and nothingness

No gods and no masters

No gods and no masters
