She reached an altar
     the ultimate stage of the reason
she stripped off the ornament
     the beautified dress of God

she transformed the message from Devil
     to the rite of sanctity
she revealed truth
     the naked truth
          the flawless soul 
               forged
                    through inferno

Oh Callas!
     Soprano!
          the height
               that human can ever reach…
