Abstract
This paper intends to elaborate the basic thought frameworks of dark poetry in the west and declare its links with schools such as the Baroque, gothic novel, grotesque, absurd e.g. .Then the sub-structural elements of dark poetry in contemporary Persian poetry- which in majority of cases include some philosophical ideas and also interweaves the social and political historical situation- are surveyed in brief. Following this, the variety of this type of poetry as manifested in both Forogh Farokzad and Nosrat Rahmani's poetry are shown by making a comparison. Through the descriptive-comparative analysis method I realized that these poets are similar due to bearing concepts such as 1)grief,  2) failure 3)disappointment 4)darkness 5)loneliness 6) doctrinal abnormal words 7)mention of physical pleasure.
There are however some differences between them, as followed: 1) difference in motive for bitterness 2) different understanding on love 3) different methods for expression of humor 4)difference in creating images  and finally 5)difference in fight against the norms.
 

Keywords: Nosrat Rahmani's poetry, Forogh Farokhzad's poetry, contemporary Persian literature, dark poetry in contemporary literature
