and they all kind of stood back , like i had the floor or something , like they say at town tonsil meetings , and i guess it was the devil that came over me then , i cant think of no other reason i did what i did , cuz i stopped my sobbing , caught my voice , and said very loudly and from deep in my chest , in a way down lower than i usually speak , sort of like a mans voice , just as the preacher was saying the word of the lord again and sort of turning the microphone over to me , it wasnt like i said them , the words just kinda rumbled out of my chest , leave that girl alone and stop smacking her !
