Portrait in a Window Pain

I couldn't help but wonder from the window
If the snow on the pine boughs tasted like gin.
On the drive home the sun was pregnant and bleeding.
What a very unfortunate state to be in.

I wrote this driving home from my step-mom's familys house around Christmas time 2005, upset with the visit. I ran the lines over and over in my head until I got home and was able to hammer them out.
