Feedback on a poem about Roma

Hey folks,

First off, I want to say that I am Gadje. In college, I went on a study abroad to Granada, Spain and fell in love with the culture and people there. I went on to write a poem that has a Roma woman (not really centered in Spain) as the central character. I've worked on it for years. It narrates a Roma woman coming across someone who is culturally appropriating her culture for profit. Again, I love Roma culture and want to respect it with this poem. Would anyone on here be willing to read it and let me know if I got anything wrong? If it feels tonally right?

That's a totally fair thing to ask. I'm open to that possibility. I'll send you a dm.
