Apparently, the New York Public Theater's latest piece of promotional artwork was a bit too "anal" for the editorial folks over at the New York Times.

The poster for "Measure for Pleasure", a play that is now showing at the New York Public Theatre, was censored by the newspaper because it depicted two cherubs posing in a sodomesque position and had their private parts covered up by one of those "Parental Advisory" stamps. The Times' version removed one of the devilish cherubs in an attempt to make the offering more "family friendly".

Now I'm not even sure if angels actually have private parts, and if so, what exactly those two were doing in that pose, but what I do know is that the original, which was created by Public Theater art director Luis Bravo, is much more alluring than the relatively tame version that was released by the Times.

Luckily for all of you reading this, the Miami Poetry Review is not as opposed to sexual play amongst deities, so you can enjoy the original artwork in its full splendor.
