A hammock is set up between two pillars. A man is relaxing on it, while a man in a suit waits nearby.
Hammocks are not present in subways.
Why is the man vacationing there?
Brother, can you spare a lime?

A play on "brother, can you spare a dime?" which is a song about economic hardship that came out during the great depression. Instead of asking for a meager amount of money, this beggar, who doesn't seem to be in dire financial straits and is instead on some type of tropical vacation in the subway, is asking for a lime, which is a superfluous garnish for his leisurely beverage. The contrast between the vacation depicted and the poverty of the original song is funny.
