they gathered to celebrate 
no longer tethered to this earthly life
he had worn his crown well
it was  tattered and torn
was he in a loft above them -he would have scoffed







trifecta

    Very nice....'were' also fits well instead of 'was' perhaps..

      It reads as a different meaning to me. Were sounds like if her were there he would be scoffing. Was is more of him scoffing at the idea that there even is a loft above them.

    Think you need to use the exact word i.e 'tether' not 'tethered'. Sorry for being a pain!

    I liked the 'no longer tethered to this earthly life' line, too. It is both liberating, and sad at the same time.

    That scoff raises questions! I wonder why he would react in such a way? Is he amused? Disappointed? I like the bit of mystery behind it.
