[ FF ] Can you tell your life story in just 200 words ?

I drove horses. The reins were tight in my hands. You had to hold them just right. My dad drove horses too, and so did his father before him. 
 
 I went to church every Wednesday and Sunday, until I was 17. And then I stopped going. I got out of the town, but I never stopped missing it, or the horses. 
 
 I was in college a month when everybody lost their jobs. `` Our government does n't work, here's a man comin' along to change that,'' people said. They called him a Messiah. They swore him in on a rabbit-ear TV to `` Air and Simple Gifts.'' 
 
 I wanted a job, and I got one that brought me to Washington, near the Messiah. They swore him again. I'm disappointed in him. Been here two years. I guess I'm successful, but I do n't always feel like it. 
 
 At night, I dream of horses.
