Muslim teenagers convicted of criminal damage after spraying burkas onto scantily-clad models in Lynx poster

I.
Woman
Hair flowing, sultry mouth open,
Wearing feathery white wings,
As if an angel.
Breasts bursting from
Tight silk,
Legs straddling a molten pit
Of pearly steam.

II.
To look twice is a sin yet
How could a man look away?
Waiting for the bus to madrasa
Or walking to mosque,
Her wings
Mocking my devotion.

III.
Black paint covers
Her nakedness.
If only paint could cover
My desire.
