Malvern is accepting

Not accepting enough to abide by the laws of thieves 
As they drown in shallow morals

Not accepting enough to tolerate the shouts of bullets as they rush through cold hollows of metal guns

Not accepting enough to withstand being ridiculed by those blinded with ignorance and brainwashed by media

But accepting enough to respect an array of music; 
Whether it be the intricate rhymes and distinct beats ringing in rap 
To the catchy repeated lyrics in pop

Accepting enough to savour the unique tastes hidden within spoonfuls of various dishes originating from different countries

Accepting like the warmth resonating from a melting pot 
As different races and cultures blend together to create one community;

My community 
The community that is 
accepting
