English assignment to write a pastiche of Plath's style - what do you think?

Honest as possible please - I dislike Plath and don't enjoy having to write like her:

The drip, drip
Drip of black-hole ink falls
Carelessly.
Blood
On blank paper, hospital-white
Reeking of sterility
Nonplussed hands struggle
Searching for words.

Eel-words, writhing from reach as
Cerebral feet stumble
Down the path to Expression
Disappointment? Perhaps. Confusion?
Certainly.
The sole understanding is the lack of understanding.
