PALINDROMES OF EVIL      
(to the tune of "The Sounds of Silence")


Palindromes are our dark friend.
Strange insights read from either end
They sometimes seem devoid of meaning.
Yet their impact comes careening
"In word-salad, alas drown I" - poor brain's lobes; 
Nasty strobes - 
The Palindromes of Evil.

So, "Evil axis - six alive"
Sends "Delivery reviled"
Message said, "Hades unused, ah!
I learned, "Ah, Satan sees Natasha"
Advice received, "Bats enliven evil nest, Ab"
"Bats, odd, do stab" - 
The Palindromes of Evil.

It "Wets dab noses on bad stew"
"Stack cats"; "We panic in a pew"
People writing, "Nightlife - filth, gin"
"Dennis, Nell, Edna and Ellen sinned"
"Satan, oscillate my metallic sonatas"; "Gnu dung"
No one had sung,
"Satan, I prefer piƱatas".

"Borrow or rob"; "Di, as I said", 
"Hell, eh?";  "Denial slain, Ed"
They hear "No word, no bond; row on
Please "No lava, not on Avalon"
"Evil Olive"; "Lisa Bonet ate no basil"
(What a hassle!)
"Golf-flog"; "Lived on, no devil"

"Stole lots"; "Rotator" -- folks were stunned;
"No dare - radon"  (that was punned)
"Murder for a jar of red rum"
Forming "Model truth: turtledom", and 
The sign flashed "Egad! No bondage
"Yaw bus. Civic subway" - rails,
And "Liar trails"
"Re-paper"- Palindromes of Evil.
