Summary/Abstract: In this article we discussed the poetic Sabri Hamiti’s work, tracking its evolution curve, with a focus on its metaphysical being. Also, as a preparation to interpret this type of poetry, we discussed the relationship between the poetry and metaphysics and the high culture, or poetry of imagination and realization thereof, in the Albanian poetic canon. Gradually, in detecting the concepts of poetic metaphysics, high culture, canon and its models in the tradition of the Albanian poetry, we reached the fundamental part, namely the reflections on Sabri Hamiti’s metaphysical poetry. Reflections on Sabri Hamiti’s poetry integrate the hermeneutic approach, where the analysis of the poetic verse i.e., the meaning thereof, becomes fundamental and does not intend to be a final or arbitrary denotation. We found that the phenomenon of poetic mystery is also motivated by the immanence of uniting author's emotion and thought with the mysteries of metaphysics, which emerge in the verses of his poems in complex forms. This is the power of a poetic systematics, of Sabri Hamiti’s work, which is a monument of Albanian literary culture.
