Not On the Same Page--For Contest

Hey, those friggin’ books you read
‘bout bein a metro dude
so into part-time love does not thrill
this awesome boo, no way!
Man, I am on act eight of flaps chillin’ 
about passion reborn with footnotes
kinda whack and sentimental;
while you dig outdated pgfs
googling for instant romance!
Seriously?
Well, if you can’t act real and be
the legend of our sweet stuff,
we’re not on the same page, aight?
Kewl, find more square books
and take a long hike ‘cuz I’m outta my way.
Fail!

The imagery and urban slang of your words are impressively seasoned by a extensive vocabulary and fill the page with their magic. Emile.
