A Qubibi storybook

Deca x Qubibi gallery competition

What am I, it asked

Am I matter

   or am I space

Am I an atom

   or am I a universe

Am I form

   or am I light

Am I darkness

   or am I bright

Am I new or am I old

Am I a moment or am I an eternity

Am I organic

   or am I synthetic

Am I order

   or am I randomness

Am I moving

      or am I still

Am I apathy

      or am I will

Am I alone

Am I silence

       or am I music

Am I a copy

       or am I unique

Am I necessary

      or am I useless

Am I valuable

      or am I worthless

Am I permanent

      or am I transient

Am I living

      or am I dying

Am I beautiful

Yes, it replied

  in full or in part

You are all these things

  for you are art
