Excellent

Hi G.,

Awwww - I'm saddened to hear of your health problems and can only begin to imagine what it must feel like to be "dethroned" by life in that manner. I think we all get it in some ways, especially later in life, but you've really gotten a heavy dose my friend. Your verse is wonderful -- nothing here to suggest improving upon. Thanks for sharing. Blessings, Jan

Thank you for the review and compliments, She's my Blessing and Strength, the king thing comes from my telling our kids, grandkids and visitors to get out of my favorite recliner - "The Kings Chair".

Average

This is certainly an interesting offering for the cinquain contest -- you do, however, need to line the words up according to the syllable/line count in order for the poem to be a valid offering....also, you are short two syllables:

Dethroned, 2
Insurgency, 4
Not required, No revolt, Kingdom 6
is remediable, 6 <---- should be eight
A switch. 2

Good luck in the contest, sir! :) :)

The type of font that is used did not allow me to. That is Why I put the commas in.
Thank you for the review and rating.
