First For Liz Poem by Ima Ryma

Elizabeth Taylor did hate
The film that gave her Oscar one,
The drama called BUtterfield 8.
Under contract that had to run
With MGM she had no choice
But play the leading call girl role.
With her best looks and her best voice
Best Actress was primary goal.
And 1961 for sure,
After a fainting spell backstage,
Best Actress Oscar went to her,
Elizabeth was all the rage.

About the film, after some drinks,
She replied, 'I still say it stinks.'
