Summary/Abstract: More or less reliably, the literature of all ages has always reflected the historical events of the social reality of the time. In this sense, the current Spanish poetry also shows this indivisible relationship with the historical context of its creation. Therefore, the present situation is marked by the concept of “crisis” and two young authors, Diego Ojeda and Marwan, have been chosen in order to study the main characteristics of his poetry. Finally, the analysis shows that the main topics of his poems, including the expression of love, are often covered with a critical attitude.
