Analysis of Fog of war
All the soldiers standing with a spear
Only see others look back and sneer
What happens next the captains know
Told where to fight and where to go
While generals plan for a broader picture
Moving pieces to insure they are the victor
Each rank higher sees further than the rest
But in the end only the king has context
