Oh dear friend, where have you been?
Since the burst of 2001, you’ve not been seen!
We can feel you now with a tingling sensation,
We’ve missed you my friend, Oh dear Recession!

Most people will welcome you with crying sobs,
You come to town and take away our jobs!
You show no mercy, everywhere you strike,
And away goes our annual salary hike!

With you comes your distant cousin called “Cost-Cutting”,
And away go free snacks, team lunches and “on-site visiting”!
The CEO will now send a mail about tough “market-conditions”,
That means more billable hours and “forget your promotions”!

What is going to happen with my car and house EMIs?
I think it is time to say to them my final goodbyes!
I pray to you, spare me from your deadly whip,
Please don’t bring me the dreaded pink slip!
