We could argue that the two forms of expression (music and poetry) are similar; both can convey one's purest thoughts and feelings and can be a representation of who someone is as a person. 


I would say that The Love Song by J. Alfred Prufrock is definitely a dramatic monologue.

Milton

Image result for milton paradise lost

In Paradise Lost, Milton refers to the story of Adam and Eve. He considers their fall a "happy fault" and thinks that there is good that came out of their fall. He thinks that because of them, mankind knows of death and sin and hardship. 


I picked this song as it is about God always being there for us.

Wife of Bath

One of the fallacies is how many times a women is married. It is not realistic to think that a women should only be married once; there are situations where a husband may pass away or there is not actual love in their relationship. 

I think the Wife of Bath would like the song "Woman" by John Lennon. 

"Woman
I can hardly expressMy mixed emotions at my thoughtlessnessAfter all, I´m forever in your debtAnd womanI will try to expressMy inner feeling and thankfulnessFor showing me the meaning of success"

The Wife of Bath reminds me of Elizabeth Taylor as she was married eight times.
