Poems about states?

[semiorobotics.livejournal.com]

A few weeks ago, someone posted Bob Hicok's "A Primer," about Michigan. (It's also available on the New Yorker website, here: http://www.newyorker.com/fiction/poetry/2008/05/19/080519po_poem_hicok.)

Can anyone help me think of other poems about specific states? I know there must be more, but I'm drawing a mental blank. Thanks so much.

It's not poetry, persay, but I know the singer Sufjan Stevens is making albums about specific states. I think he wants to do one about each state, but has so far only done Illinois and Michigan.
