Google Search Poetry

At the end of 2006, Google published its top searches of the year, excluding invariables like "dictionary" and "ebay". The lists below struck us as pure poety, so we edited them accordingly. Read these stanzas wearing a black turtleneck in the subway, and see how many quarters you'll amass from the passersby:
