Sun Tzu described
But history forgets
The crucial nature
Of the general's relationship
With the emperor
And the soldiery
For there is no strategy
Without a relationship
Even if it is a strategy
For achieving a goal of one's own
Entirely under one's own power
Connection with self
Mutual understanding
Enables another vertex
Of this oft-misunderstood polygon:
The agreement
For no strategy may be implemented
Without the concurrence
In a vacuum a strategy
Cannot breathe
So the air
Is the nodding of the head(s)
And the enactment
In alignment
The other point of this three-sider
That which you pretend to know:
Prioritization
A concept as slippery as snow
It's a rank-order
A stack below whose top layers
Gets cut off
Not just left in the pile
Pruning the bottom
Doing the top
So if you like me
Surely you'll agree
This is what you and I shall do
That is what we will not
