Probably better to lay off the archaic language without first having at least a loose grasp of it. It's a pretense anyway and its contrast with the modern theme of the poem isn't really justified. The first few lines suggest an ear for meter but it soon dissolves. I would try it without the old english and more tightly focused on meter.
Good Luck with it
