Mary Jane

by Hannah Lizette   Nov 11, 2012


Her body is sky-scraping tall and voluptuous,
crystals shower her feminine neck as
she sways with confidence,
knowing her perfume will hypnotize you.

She knows just the right buttons to push,
a trailing of a tickle down your aching back,
an erotic tingle,
and the peace of mind of being completely carefree.

Sometimes, I'm green with envy.
She intoxicates you in a way that I never can...

she makes you happy.

    Her body is sky-scraping tall and voluptuous,

    - I love this opening, so descriptive and you have captured this character well and we can picture her in our minds as quite seductive and confident so we know she is quite a strong character. I love the idea of the perfume hypnotizing him, this whole stanza reminded me of the adverts on TV for perfume.... you should submit this to it lol!

    She knows just the right buttons to push,
    a trailing of a tickle down your aching back,
    an erotic tingle,
    and the peace of mind of being completely carefree.

    - Again, we are given more about her character and how strong she is. It does appear that she is quite a manipulative charater though. Maybe too big for her own boots?

    Sometimes, I'm green with envy.
    She intoxicates you in a way that I never can...

    she makes you happy

    - This is such a twist in the ending, I wasn't all too sure where you were going with this poem to begin with, but this ending makes it clear that it is about two women who feel the same for a guy, and you feel like she will win every time because she makes him happy in ways you never can.

    Great poem and I must say a little different to read from you, so well done.

    This poem makes me wonder if it's about one woman or woman in general...

    Sometimes I feel like everyone else has better qualities to attribute and I feel inadequacy. Like if I'm attracted to someone and they don't like me the same way, they like someone who's maybe taller than me, skinnier, smarter, etc. I feel incompetent compared to them, because I can't compare in those ways and I envy those qualities because people seem to want them and not me.I feel like this poem relates to that in a way, well that's what I got from it anyway.

    It's a very lovely poem, Hannah (:
