Almost Fell – Nicolas Jaar

The earth rises away from the shore
A human figures slopes up from the ground
Its toes touched the 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 water
