The play on words between “horse” and “hearse” pokes fun in this classic pun. 8. The crematorium has to urn our business. Most kids brag about how tall their fathers are, but pigmy kids brag about how small their fathers are. The poet's father was a violent drunk who becomes soft and more loveable through his dying, a horrible bind to which I unfortunately relate, having seen my violent alcoholic stepfather become softened by impending death.
