the land of ten thousand scams

we wake
up to the news, the paper,
our phones.
honey,
she says,
we should move to Minnesota.
do you
see what's going on there?
they are giving away
money.
millions,
billions.
let's pack the car and go.
we can open
up a daycare
center,
a food bank.
we can apply for a grant,
for 
government
subsidies.
it's a gold mine there,
without the digging or doing
any work.
let's hit the road before
the money
runs out,
and half the world gets here
on a visa.
