you start describing the splendor and end with the apparent realization that there is poverty as well.
maybe there is a way you can show that the poem´s subject expected nothing but splendor but is then appalled to find the opposite. i think that would give the poem more message.
maybe then you wouldn´t need the explanation in the last two lines.
was in budapest in 2004, the center is starbucks and gold, but when you move to the outskirts it´s wood crates and and dirt. all the capitals in the world are this way i guess.
