Houstonist Flickr Group Photo of the Day - Gassing up at Chevron

The shot from flickr user and Houstonist photo contributor Chuckwheat.

This bright shot is great, it's clear what's going on (an interesting character panhandling at a gas station) but everything is a little off. The truck in the background isn't your typical F-150, and clearly this guy in the foreground isn't your typical panhandler. We get a little more info from the description in another shot.

The description also seems to be in some sort of poetic, broken verse:

panhandling @ the Chevron station. Said he had an MFA
from Yale & was (is?) an artist.
Ended by telling me I seemed like a cool guy that'd "take a
bullet for him" if it came down to that.
Tom, I didn't see that movie....
