Summary/Abstract: Ch. Baudelaire is the poet that tried hallucinogenic experiences. He wished to achieve the absolute in poetry creation, the consumption of opium and hashish had helped him to give birth to Poetry, that rere flower of the Haven. Consumption of narcotics overcomes all limits, George Bacovia also uses hallucinogenic effects of alcohol to escape freem sick universe in which he feels more and more solitary. In this material I wish to analyze the works of the two poets to identify in their lyrics the hallucinogenic elements that create artificial images. I will highlight that hidden side that is also reflected in the work of the two writers: the consumption of narcotics to sink into the mistery of poetry and overcome the boundaries of a common man.
