We're Still in Kansas After All

It's odd how my daughter knows many of the groups of my youth because they're still echoing around the Internet.

                                                    We’re Still in Kansas After All

                                                Pop songs used to lead mayfly lives:
                                                on the charts one day, dead the next
                                                as former stars tended bar and
                                                one hit wonders wandered the streets,
                                                scattered like the dust in the wind
                                                some forgotten group sang about.

                                                Now all are caught in the amber
                                                of the internet and oldies stations,
                                                then resurrected, Jurassic Park-like,
                                                so Zombies with Pacemakers can
                                                roam the earth again as long as two
                                                hundred or more are gathered in their name.

                                                I hope my poems meet a similar fate,
                                                and I can remain current, even when I’m late.

Notes for foreign readers and non-Baby Boomers:
      Kansas was the group that sang "Dust in the Wind."  The titleof the poem is a probably too obscure allusion to them and a twist on Dorothy's line from The Wizard of Oz upon landing in the Technicolor Land of Oz, "I get the feeling we're not in Kansas anymore."
    The Zombies and Gerry and the Pacemakers were two groups from the 60's who, I thought, have appropriate names for the old but undead groups that tour the oldies circuit.
