Poet Dennis L. Siluk in
Villa Rica’s 64th Anniversary—Reads Poetry
Writer and Poet, Dennis L. Siluk, was a special guest at the 64th Anniversary of Villa Rica’s becoming a district (where he did a reading of his poetry, from his book “The Poetry of Stone Forest…”): the gathering consisted of over 100-persons in this little busy mountain town, carved out of a valley most beautiful, they welcomed Dennis with open arm; his welcoming Committee, consisted of the well known writer Gilbert Ortega Lago, whose books include “El Perro y el Jaguar,” and Lagrimas tiene el camino” and Rolando Mandujano Antonio, who wrote, “El Mundo Amazonico en su Cultura Ancestral” & “La Puerta De Walla.”
During the event and reading, Dennis was most impressed with the young dramatic poetry readers and actresses (female children) from eleven years old to fifteen or older, especially Bridget, a young poetess, who is taking after her uncle Rolando M. Antonio: in which she dedicated her performance to Dennis.
During his 24-four hour visit, the committee paid for everything, except the transportation, and Julio, the brother to Gilbert O. Lago (part of the committee), provide much of that during the visit, and some of the way back to Huancayo: all three of these writers (Julio working on his book), took the Poet and his wife out to eat, to a coffee plantation, to the “Wetland”(lake) where he visited an Australian who owned a resort, by the name of Anderson, and to Mt. Divine, where he walked across the moving (or wobbling) bridge, and scared his wife almost to death by pretending he fell.
“All in all, the trip was fantastic,” says the poet, and he has now a new story he tells us of suspense for his next book, the story is called, “The Loro Machaco of Villa Rica” (meaning in English: 'The Green Snake Attacker’: Sara, Gilbert O. Lago’s wife, provided inspiration for the name). It will be put into the appendix part of the book to be out in July, of 2009, called “The Selected and Translated Poetry of Juan Parra del Riego (and Poetry of the Miners, of Cerro de Pasco).
