And If I Continued On to Paradise?

Northern Utah's empty hills would nurture me.
I know they would, but in what fashion would they?
Vast and treeless, beckoning to those, like me,
With arid souls, would I be energized by them,
Inspired to write, not ever stopping, or would
I be pacified to such extent that I would sit for
Hours on them, blankly staring, loath to shift my
Gaze toward this tablet's keys again?

Is there ever such a place of profound peace that would inspire us to create endlessly or leave us so fulfilled/ruined that we no longer feel the need to create at all? You would have told us now that you've continued on, in your own unique way. R.I.P.
