More than tips: this is coaching for the contest!
The challenge is - all - those - dashes: Emily Dickinson’s poetry is full of them! How do you make it sound natural and expressive when reciting?

“HOPE” IS THE THING WITH FEATHERS - (314) by Emily Dickinson.
“Hope” is the thing with feathers -
That perches in the soul -
And sings the tune without the words -
And never stops - at all -
And sweetest - in the Gale - is heard -
And sore must be the storm -
That could abash the little Bird
That kept so many warm -
I’ve heard it in the chillest land -
And on the strangest Sea -
Yet - never - in Extremity,
It asked a crumb - of me.
