And inasmuch as the bridge is a symbol of all such poetry as I am interested in writing it is my present fancy that a year from now I'll be more contented working in an office than ever before.

Summary

The quote suggests that the speaker, who is interested in writing poetry, sees the bridge as representative of their specific type of poetry. However, despite their initial fascination with writing poetry, the speaker believes that in a year's time, they will find greater fulfillment and contentment working in an office job rather than pursuing their poetic aspirations. It implies a shift in their priorities and a realization that their current path may not lead to the fulfillment they initially imagined.
