LONG WOODEN BRIDGE - ADAM ICKES

BRIDGE TO INSANITY

So, Mr. President, you’re having a recurring dream?” the doctor asked.

Yes.  At least a dozen times this past year. I’m walking down a long, narrow, wooden bridge. Ahead I see the pavilion where a peace treaty signing is scheduled. I know they’re all there, waiting for me.  But I can’t get there!”

Why not?”

Because the damn bridge keeps growing longer with every step I take!”

And you think the dream means something particular?”

Of course.  And that’s what’s driving me insane.”

What?”

It means there’s never going to be an end to war.”
