Hiss incantation

The Hiss incantation is a Dadaist poem that is recited by individuals possessed or influenced by the Hiss.
==Description==
The Hiss incantation, as it is described by the Federal Bureau of Control, is a recursive chant repeated by entities which are possessed or influenced by the Hiss. This has included Hiss-possessed FBC agents as well as Dylan Faden and Zachariah Trench. The meaning of the poem, if any, is not known by the Bureau, though Emily Pope was adamant that the incantation was meaningful, perhaps a statement of intention or a means of spreading the Hiss resonance. Dylan Faden, while under the Hiss's influence, described the incantation as soothing.
The incantation is Dadaist, incorporating irrationality and a rejection of logic into its structure. The ominous tone of the chant hints towards misanthropy, isolation and violence, much like the behavior of the Hiss infected themselves.
==Origins==
Expansion 2: AWE reveals that the Hiss incantation is a Dadaist poem written by Alan Wake. Wake needed something to convey an "alien force mimicking human intelligence," something that could not be translated. He cut up sentences and words and then put them in a shoebox, pulling out the words and forming them together into what would later become the Hiss incantation. 
It remains unclear if Wake was in some way interpreting the Hiss through his paranatural abilities, or if the Hiss took this poem for some unknown purpose. However, there is some evidence that the Hiss may have actually implanted the chant into Wake's subconscious, as the lines "you give us the permission in your regulations" and "the word that describes this is redacted" appears to be directly mocking the FBC's bureaucratic structure and censorship of information, with "you've taken your boss with your boss with you" possibly alluding to Zachariah Trench (the "boss" of the FBC) being under the thrall of the Hiss itself.
