I met a girl in Cibecue
Who did not quite know what to do
Then down by the river
She turned Indian-giver
And I ended up with the flu
Thomas Hutchinson noted the saying
Most Indians used barter for paying
The message is spoken
Exchange for a token
Indians dislike this write
Received gift one day, from another
Given in love, from older brother
Borrowed back at one time
Not returned, what a crime
Worst Indian giver, than any other
Interesting subject is this
usually starts with a kiss
one could say ‘tis never fair
to be born love live and care
only then the call to dismiss.

You gave us food and we took your land
It's not right to make promises grand
We took all your stuff
Till you said enough --
And gave General Custer his last stand
.
The Indian Healer gathered willow
Dried medicinal bark like dried tallow
When fever came to the camp
Small dose when with fever damp
Relieves many of tribe from the deathblow
Emotional Innuendo
Forgiveness Insinuation
Moving forwards Allusion
Reconciliation Tease
Indian giver of hope
Given than taken away
To good to be true
Should have know it was a lie
When the heart I gave wholly to you
was stomped on and then ripped in two,
I took it right back.
So hit the road, Jack!
I'll be good once I find Super Glue.
For P.D.'s Indian Giver Contest
I met a "God Sent" Indian Giver once
A theater costume manager named Hans
Acting on stage
I felt just rage
He chased me shouting: "Give me baak my pants!"
for Poet Destroyer's Contest "Indian Giver"
My Indian Squaw is a beauty.
Keeping me happy is her duty.
But an Indian giver in every way.
When I try to get her to play.
She turns up her nose and acts very snooty!
*For PD's Indian giver contest.
Caresses on his back made him quiver.
Enticingly, she said, “Love, come hither.”
Warm fingers rubbed his spine.
Her kisses felt so fine.
An Indian princess was his giver.

He promised to love me forever
Then again he was just being clever
He took back his love
So I gave him a shove
Headfirst in cow dung-my endeavor!

An enigmatic Indian beauty from Delhi
Told me that her first name was Anjali
I gave her all my cash
Seven goats and an ass
Then took them back for she was really a fellow
(6th in Contest; Indian Giver by Destroyer Poet)
There was a fella I knew who worked with hammer and chisel
Made carvings in wood that could make your eyes sizzle.
One day he brought a carving to the store
Where they sell tobacco, cigarettes, cigars, and more...
And there it stands beckoning, even in a drizzle.
(To give then take)
I shut my eyes for a few seconds today
Missing you, I wished you were here
Then suddenly the walls became dim
My heart murmurs your name
I swallow the tears behind my eyes
Claiming back the wish
Why would I ever let myself fall in love again?
By: PD
Way back in the years you gave to me your heart..
Yanked it back so fast before it could even start..
I pitter pattered through my mind to see what went wrong..
I questioned my inner mind to just see where I belong..
A gift so special torn away , the pain like a piercing dart..
P.D. Indian Giver Contest
Indian say white man speak with forked' tongue
He took land kill buffalo and my young
Great Spirit hear entreaty
White man disregards treaty
Me think he talk heap of buffalo dung

Gatherer of Herbs
Storer of tree limbs, leaves, shrubs, love
His cures a free gift
Gift of his knowledge
Free to early settlers
Pharmacies use now
PoetDestroyer is the name of she
and she's under the delusion that she crushed me,
but an Indian Giver is yours truly.
I take back my slam crown of royalty.
Not a limerick my little slam queen nemisis?
No need to get yourself all distressed
I'm an Indian Giver, remember? I withdraw from your contest.
By the way, "Indian Giver" isn't politically correct.
Hi P D. Nice to see ya again.
*TheKidsterWasHere*
If it takes a dollop of Dutch courage
to French kiss an English rose
would it make a lily-livered
Indian giver look down his nose
but with Yiddish chutzpah
as a Spanish fly on the wall
and luck o' the Irish
you could Australian crawl
and yet the Chinese fire drill
it's still a safe bet
and a Mexican standoff
are not Russian roulette
but who'd deliberately open the door
for a Portuguese man o' war
When I look on the white mans past
And the tribes that never did last
We have Reagan to thank
Indigenous profits, bank
Casinos, through the doors you'll pass
"Indian giver. When an Indian gives any thing, he expects to receive an equivalent, or to
have his gift returned."
"My slant differs somewhat slightly to the fact they were forced to give their lands away,
eventually time and Guilt made the modern white man see sense and return their lands somewhat"
