Saturday Riddle Classic

It is Saturday once more.

And through the trees the pale mattern of the snow
Like glimpses of a balding skull.

Extra credit: what poem does this riddle parody? [Easy]

“The Waste Land” is the parody, I think. On second thought, “The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock”?

Um, is it a biological solar pannel,or a PC way of describing , “Hair Follically challanged” or “Your Hair line is receeding”, No, that Sound more like Pink Floyd’s comfortably Numb.
