Jack Keourac wrote Howl while on a drug binge; Kerouac was on a series of hallucinogen drugs and he wrote Howl in a stream of consciousness state of mind.

From BlergK: No, Jack Kerouac did not write Howl. Allen Ginsberg wrote Howl. While the two of them were often associated in the same circles and were parts of both the Beat Generation as well as the "Great San Francisco Poets" as Kerouac labels them at one point in his novel Big Sur, Kerouac did not write Howl. The above answer may be confusing Kerouac's writing of On The Roadwhich Kerouac wrote over the course of a twenty day binge of benzedrine, marijuana, and possibly other drugs.
