A persona, from the Latin for mask, is a character taken on by a poet to speak in a first-person poem. Anthony Thwaite's 'Monologue in the Valley of the Kings' uses the word 'I' but it refers, not to the poet, but to the Pharaoh, Thwaite's persona in this poem.

The persona in a poem is the speaker, the voice that is delivering the thoughts and emotions within the poem. It is important to note that the persona may not always be the poet themselves, as poets often create personas to express different perspectives or experiences in their work.
