David Bowie kidnapped me.
(And I'm so full of sh**).
Coming soon:
The return of Stella.
I promise.
While listening to Ella Fitzgerald at work one day, I wrote a poem, trying to find my inner diva again and found I lost that sultry lady behind spectacles, spreadsheets, cells, columns and number crunching. Suddenly, it dawned on me that without realizing it, I've turned into Debbie from Accounting.
She Tries
After awhile
these signs
don't mean
a thing,
The phone
just stop'd
to ring.
I know
you know
we
matter
no mo
& time...
she aint my friend,
she's all I got
till the end.
I can't miss
you these days,
'cuz honey
its been too long
since we've parted ways.
This is me and my inner ella.

I'm sure your inner Diva is still there Stella. And if I were you, I'd be brimming with pride. Because not only can you Divaize (new word, meaning to Diva something) a blog like nobody's business, but you’re a master at Excel spreadsheets as well. Pure talent lady!
Nice to see you posting again! :)
Welcome back, and I enjoyed the poem.
And Debbie from Accounting is sexy. So shush.
::smile::
Great to see you back. The Diva will come out soon.
:-)
Hm, David Bowie now, DB as Ziggy or DB in that strange 80's dancing in the streets way? Because, it matters. ;)
Lovely poem. There's a strength to it, almost a closure, so to speak.
ah, you've been away, too.
lovin' ya
S.x
So glad you're back! I was beginning to worry.
Happy returns!!!
I hope Bowie wore a fantastic military jacket when he kidnapped you ;)
Love the inner Ella.
Missed you!
so there you are, pretty baby. missed you.
Shanghaied by the Thin White Duke, ehh? City
living sounds sort of complicated ;-) Good
to see you up and at it again!
wooooohoooooo.... yr back... i so missed you... was beginning to worry myself..... and in typical Stella Style, great comeback post... reminds me in rhythm and tone of one of my favorite poets, Bob Dylan
P.S.
(Bowie NEVER had it so good)
I loved Cy's comment.
Truthfully Stella, if you're Debbie from Accounting, then Accounts have got it good! Accounts are where it's at! And I'm readying my application!
;-)
you definitely found her. i can see it in the poem. i was wondering where you were. come back sooner than soon!! :)
Still away
but watching you
Well, I'll be. StELLA is back in town! I'm glad to see you on the mend...in the end, it does matter.
And you're not full of sh**. Not you no way.
I heard David Bowie is going on kidnapping sprees, actually. It's getting really bad at the moment, too. According to a press conference with David, he said that Michael Jackson was his inspiration.
(...And I am just as full of shit as you...)
The poem is effortlessly lucid. And I like the bit about I can't miss you these days. It sure did make me smile. Wonderful! :-)
Cheers
Dan
I await your return with bated breath.
xoxoxo
(hugs and kisses in the meantime)
lucky bowie.
"i can't miss you these days"...
if only.
i want to hear the inner ella of stella, does she sing out loud?
ah, there you are again! good to have you back.
Well, you promised. I take promises quite seriously, which is why I never promise, ha ha.
so busted. lol.
Bowie is the greatest. I have a Bowie screensaver that I'd be happy to send you if want it. :)

Seeing that my cookies are disabled or some error message I keep getting, I can't creat a new post even though I want to. Damn. Bad blogging karma, I suppose.
It snowed today in New York. My first snowfall in Brooklyn. I'm in love. With the sidewalks and the trees and the wintery scenes. Some people hate winters, and I can understand why. But there's something about being cold, that makes me feel warm. I wish I could share that with you.
Hello stella, I have seen you at a lot of places and just wanted to stop in and say hello. It is a lovely poem.
Being from Chicage we have the four seasons but the winters are way to long for me. I love the first heavy snow, then no more.
Hi Stella, I just wanted to say thanks for your response on my latest piece. It is comforting to know that someone thinks that way.
Your offer to provide stamps made me laugh out loud. Next time I am New York, you'll have to take me on a date to the local post office. : )
Bye!
Stella! *hug* Good to see you back, bella. I loved these lines and their cadence:
& time...
she aint my friend,
she's all I got
till the end.
Priceless in a sighing kind of way. Hmmm... your "inner Ella" St-Ella. I see now. ;-p Miss you and I *HEART* accountants, Debbie!
*smirk*
"& time...
she aint my friend,
she's all I got
till the end."
loved those lines and the style
time for a new post???
that david bowie is one bastard. isn't it about time he let you go so you can update your blog site.
i have every record that mister jones has ever made and (sad to admit it) have been a fan of his since the mid sixties.
before him every one sounded american (no offense) including the beatles and the stones, and then suddenly he appeared and sounded like ME!)
Debbie from Accounting is a total slut, David Bowie kidnapped me in 76, I escaped with a little more insight. I would like to know what happened next, are you real?
To: Debbie from Accounting
from: rayray
re: please put stella and her inner ella back where you found them. or send shower videos, either way.
wella wella
still no stella
You said you experienced first snow? World went crazy! I live in much colder place than you and this year... no snow at all!
By the way, I experienced NYC in winter only. One of the best winters ever had. My first photo taken by the christmas tree...
Years go by.
