Writing a Dramatic Monologue The poem is a dramatic monologue, also known as a persona poem Shares many characteristics with a theatrical monologue: an audience is implied; there is no dialogue; and the poet speaks through an assumed voice—a character, a fictional identity, or a persona. Because a dramatic monologue is by definition one person’s speech, it is offered without overt analysis or commentary, placing emphasis on subjective qualities that are left to the audience to interpret. Poem is connotative, or contains more than the literal (denotative) meaning, emotions, and associations of its words and phrases

Express the feelings of the figure you choose in close relation to the main facts that pertain to them right before their deaths. Your monologue should contain at least 20 lines, be written in verse paragraphs and end with a line of iambic pentameter.
