The Prohibitions and Prudery of Palindromes: A Refer-ence List

POST #45
PALINDROMES: new and previously published
See also my previously posted collection of "canalindromes"  - palindromes related to canals and to Mercer's iconic creation here.  

A surprising proportion of palindromes is characterized by themes of denial, reproach, disparagement, sarcasm and even prudery. Here are some examples.

Original Sources: PalindromeList (PL)Neil/Fred's Gigantic List of Palindromes. ; these provide a portion of the palindromes, the remainder (about half) composed by GC.

Palindromes in song are rare, but you can find 2 palindrome-songs on this blog "X66X" and "Gnats Sang: Gnus Stung" by clicking these titles or by using the search option.
