I chose the poem "Dancers Exercising" by Amy Clampitt. I chose this poem because, for one, it made me think about its meaning when I read it, and two, I liked the word choice. It doesn't hold any particular significance for me, but I do enjoy reading complex poems and thinking about what they are meant to be saying.
I'm preparing for the competition by memorizing my poem, for start. After I have it fully memorized, I plan on recording myself for practice or maybe reciting it for my family. Even after preparing for the competition, I still like the poem. I've noticed that the line divisions in it are kind of irregular, though, which makes it a hard poem to recite.
