Reread this stanza from "Not a Soul in Sight."

Or they would be small dogs pulling at the leash,
yapping after scents unseen, all chase and motion,
loving this dirty earth too much ever to be still.
What effect is this stanza's metaphor likely to have on readers?

A. It will discourage them from talking about lost loved ones.
B. It will remind them of their own dread about death.
C. It will make the spirits of the dead seem less scary.
D. It will make them frightened of the next dog they see.
