This probably doesn't answer your question, but if you're not strictly
concerned with option order nd context, you can avoid using a state
machine and just do something like

_arguments -s \
  \*{-v,--verbose}'[increase verbosity of messages]' \
  '(-s --simple)'{-s,--simple}'[simple flag]' \
  \*{-p,--path=}':directory for following commands:_directories' \
  '*--parameter=:parameter:(1 2 3)'
