“Recession is when your neighbor loses his job. Depression is when you lose yours”
Ronald Reagan
Regan was the most practical man when he explained recession. Year 2008 marked the most serious recession after the great depression in 1930. But the worst was not yet over. In 2008 it started with Lehman brothers. In 2011 it started [...]

Don’t let us die
We are the future of this country
When the sentence finished
Firing started and took lives of 30 innocent students
Sky started bleeding
And the rain swallowed the sorrow
Don’t let us die
We are the hope of millions
Through us they see their dreams

School bell started ringing
But no one heard!
Our country [...]

The newspaper with the Nobel announcement lies before me,
From it, Llosa smiles.
Around the corner
A black sheep smiles,
Then it turned a goat and started crying!

I had dreams

My life, my future
I always lived for you
 Now I am in this cruel city
Because of you
I smoke too much-because of you
My nights are sleepless [...]

He is a prominent figure in the financial services sector of this country. I was nervous at the [...]
