Almost Fell - Nicolás Jaar

The earth rises away from the shore

A human figure slopes up from the ground

Its toes touched toes of its mirror image

Another human figure facing it

The bottom half of this figure is cut into the earth and filled with water that

has streamed inland

The top half of the figure is a plain of grass

That stretches offshore and descends underwater

The monuments have been brought down to earth

And made part of land and water
