Gary Slideshow

Drunken Poetry ~by Gary Rillera

I really wanted to post these with pictures closest to the time period when the poems were written.


The rest of the poems were written in a row during our Ft. Canby camping trip of 2004.

Jacob the Sleeper
He sleeps in the morning
He sleeps at night
When he wakes up he starts a fight.
He doesn’t sleep in his own bed he sleeps with his mom.
When he wakes up she is gone
If he had a million

Dollars he would buy

A great big bed where

He could lay his great big head
Sarah the Stomper
She stomps when she’s mad
She stomps when she’s sad
She stomps on the floor
And sits down when she can’t stomp any more.
After she sits
She throws a fit
If she thinks that nobody heard her she goes
outside and plays bloody murderer
Deborah the Creeper
She creeps in the house
She creeps around outside
Nobody sees her
Because she quiet as a mouse
She creeps to the car
And goes for a ride
We can’t ever find her
Because she knows where to hide
If you see her being a

Creeper
Just wait for a while she will be found with the
Sleeper.

Rebekah the Chomper
She chomps on food and
Also candy
She chomps on everything
And thinks its dandy
She will chomp on chicken and even a cat
With all that chomping
You’d think she’d get fat
She gets mad if you call her a chomper if you
Call her that she’ll beat
Up the stomper
Rachel the Mother
She mothers the dogs and cats
If you let her she would mother the rats
She mothers the stomper
She mothers the chomper
She mothers the sleeper
She mothers the creeper
She knits with her nose
She knits with her toes
Should we keep her
I suppose
Simon the Lover
He stays out all day
He stays out all night
He stays out so long he
Gives his mom a fright
When he is home he’s on
The phone he talks so
Much he’s like a dog
With his bone don’t tell him to stay home tonight
Or he’ll puff up like a fish
And want to fight
Christine the Intellectual
First there was home school, high school
                                         Then college
Her forehead got so big because of all
                                       That knowledge
She sounds so smart when she says a
                                        Big word.
It’s the most amazing thing you ever
                                          Heard
She’s got a boyfriend that makes her
                                Feel happy
But when she can’t see him she feels
                                  All crappy
The kids were so sad when she went away
So sad they could not go out and play
She’s coming home for Christmas one day
Too bad she won’t be able to stay
Dad the Heavy
He eats all day and all night
He eats so much his tummy’s a fright
He drinks beer, he drinks whisky
When he drinks that stuff it makes him
Frisky
He goes outside and grabs a chicken
He cuts off it’s head and lets the
Dogs lick’em
He bought a crossbow so he could
Get buff
After a week he had enough of
That stuff
Fat the Fat
It grows on your tummy it grows on
your butt
when you try to take it off you look
like a nut
you get it from eating
you get it from seating
you get it when you eat a lot
you get it if you eat or not
it grows when your sleeping if you’ve eaten a lot
so beware of Thanksgiving and
beware of Christmas
or the fat will grow it won’t miss (us)
Stephanie the Sneeze
Stephanie’s a sneeza but you
Better not tease her Because it
Certainly will not please her
She loves the kittens. But if they
Run away she puts on her mittens
then she’ll bake some cookies
and give them to Neo he’ll eat them
up and keel
Smokey the Campfire
Oh how we love to sit around the
Campfire. It is our ultimate desire
We sit around it and smell the smoke
And then we choke. But we still sit
There and smell that smoky air
We sit there and choke and tell
Another joke. But Paul and Gary
They are smarty they have a different way of enjoying the smoke
...I’ll have another beer
Mackenzie the Queen
She sits in the middle without even a
Riddle. They don’t know what to do because
She is the queen. Oh Mackenzie you’re
The best we’ve ever seen. But don’t run
Away because we still need a queen.
Simon won’t mind he’s busy making
sandcastles.  Why should he
worry about you, that’s such a hassle.
Just be the queen you know
What I mean. He’s going away soon
So just give him a spoon and he’ll
Be back soon.
Paul the Drinker
Or is it thinker
Or whatever. Drinker, thinker, or stinker.

He has lots of music and he’d appreciate if you’d use it.

Oh I can’t remember.

What was I saying.
Oh well it doesn’t matter.
It was a gypsy woman
Around the campfire or
Something. Anyway getting back to Paul

the drinker, the stinker, the thinker.
Jennifer with a mosquito bite on her nose
It makes her feel bad all the way
Down to her toes. It really does, you
Know it shows. She sits by the fire
And lets the smoke go up her nose.
She turns away but that doesn’t help.
It makes her want to yelp, just like
Wasabi Max. Wasabi Max Wasabi
Max give her a song to sing and she will
Be all right. She won’t mind the mosquito
Bite
Drunken Poetry by Rachel (Title)
She calls it drunken poetry
But she doesn’t really know
What it is all about. She makes me
So mad I could shout Wasabi Max
Wasabi Max Wasabi Max. drunken
poetry? What do you mean. All of my fans
wait for my poems they want to know
what I have say today or the next
day even if its just Wasabi Max
Wasabi Max Wasabi Max
Lizzy the Busy
She sits by the fire and eats
Her taco. She is so glad that
She’s at Ilwaco. When she’s
Done with that she sits on
JJ’s lap. Then she takes a
hike or rides a bike. Taking
hike or riding a bike or lying on
her back. She’s as happy
as Wasabi Max just sitting
by the fire eating her taco at, Ilwaco
Eric the Backwash Drinker
He’s a friend of Sarah the Stinker
She says that her dad’s poems
Don’t rhyme but that’s really
A crime.
What do you expect
From drunken poetry. Anything
Rhymes even Wasabi Max  and
That’s a fact. Anyway Eric the
Backwash Drinker . He’s okay because
he’s the son of the thinker.
the stinker. the drinker.
Wasabi Max, Wasabi Max, Wasabi Max
Wasabi max he goes out fishing
And eats the left over bait. It’s something
That most people would hate. Mackenzie quit
Singing it hurts my ears they’re stinging.
Wasabi Max loves fishing but when
He eats to much bait, he just throws up
Everything he just ate. That’s just
great for Wasabie Max then he
can eat more bait
Wasabi Jake
He chases the ball
But that’s not all.
He eats hot sauce.
And wasabi balls
He comes to whoever calls
He eats taco shells
And then he smells
He smells Wasabi Max
And says that doesn’t smell
So good. I think I should
Eat some more
JJ
If Mackenzie would quit singing
Maybe I could think. She doesn’t
Give me a chance even to stink
He eats Filipino style. He uses his
Hand and that’s grand. Because when
you eat with your hand you get a
little sand. Just like Wasabi Max
and those are the facts. Just ask Wasabi Max. JJ’s so quiet
it’s such a riot. JJ would have a hay day
if he could stay here every day day. Shut
up Mackenzie I need to think so I
can write drunken poetry.
Sandy
Sandy’s so handy. She cooks
The food and buys us candy
She really doesn’t mind if Paul
And Gary drink that brandy. Even
If they go to the beach and get
All sandy. They take Wasabi Max
and Wasabi Jake and they never
come back. They’re probably some
where drinking that brandy. Or
maybe they’re eating candy. Oh
it doesn’t matter. I have get
busy cooking or cleaning or buying candy
or watching those guys drink
brandy. Wasabi Max Wasabi Max
Wasabi Max drunken poetry
at its max.

Dad Pics

Here are my pics of Dad

A talk with Dad....

I will post more later, but I remember a talk with Dad as well. It was shortly after I had graduated college I think and I came home for a visit and Dad was randomly the only one home. So he took me out to breakfast. I had wanted to ask him about himself so I did. He told me how he wanted to be a Doctor and go to 3rd world countries and treat people. He had a very adventurous spirit. Then he told me how he met Linda and why that relationship didn't work out. He also told me about how him and his brothers used to break into cigarette vending machines for cigarrettes and how he enrolled in the Army and got in trouble a few times drinking and how he got in trouble. Total trouble maker. :)

Something to Remember


So I figured this would be a good place for all of the memories. If you want to put pictures, music, whatever. Of course not everything can be put up here but just Tell everyone you know so they can at least look at it and add if they want.

I remember a conversation I had with dad when I was about 16. He was going to drive me to a soccer game in Omak and so I was up early and he made me breakfast. Eggs mixed with some type of fired pork, green onions, and garlic, over rice. I don't know what made me do it but I asked him if he had ever played soccer.  He said a little in high school and when he was younger but not much on regular teams. At that moment I realized that my dad went to high school. That he had a life before us. I asked him more questions and learned more about my dad in that half hour trip to Omak than I had ever known.  I learned about his past girlfriend Smoky, that he once wanted to be a doctor, and that he used to ice skate on a pond near his house and jump over garbage cans frozen in the ice.
