Get out of position? (6)
'get out of position?' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this definition defines the answer.
'get out of position?' is the wordplay.
'get out of' becomes 'de' (I can't justify this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'position?' becomes 'pose' (posing is a kind of positioning).
'de'+'pose'='DEPOSE'

(Other definitions for depose that I've seen before include "Remove from power or testify in court" , "Throw out" , "Oust or unseat" , "Speedo (anag)" , "Oust in epodes" .)
This might be a double definition.
'get' is the first definition.
Although both the answer and definition are verbs in their base form, I don't see how one could define the other.
'position' is the second definition.
Although both the answer and definition are verbs in their base form, I don't understand how they can define each other.
'out of' is the link.
