Nothing to do with Ben Stiller (or Hermeneutics) [poem]

When hunting for rhymes for 'vanilla'
one often considers gorilla
or those Grecians Charybdis and Scylla
or miller or villa or killer.
More proper names offer us 'Cilla'
(and my personal favourite Attila)
or that chap who spent years on a pillar
on the outskirts of modern Manila.
To conclude we should end with a thriller
but instead I've just gone for a filler

(1993)
