Hi buddy,

The poet William Henry Davies ends up in a fog so thick that he is muddled and can't discover his direction home. He is then aided by a man who guaranteed to take him home. Once the writer returned home, he understands that the man who had driven him home was visually impaired. On a more conceptual level, the poetry might be about how individuals trust just what they can actually observe, and need attention to things concealed, for example, confidence, conviction, religion, etc.

I saw the fog grow thick 
Which soon made blind my ken;
It made tall men of boys,
And giants of tall men. 

The poet saw the fog becoming heavier, the fog made the poet blind and the people around appeared to be tall in the fog and the people who were already tall appeared giant in the fog.

It clutched my throat, I coughed;
Nothing was in my head 
Except for two heavy eyes
Like balls of burning lead.

The fog affected the poet and it made him feel being choked. The poet coughed and the head of the poet seemed empty and he could also feel his eyes which were relatively heavy and hot and he could feel the heat of his eyes too.

The meaning of clutched my throat is that the poet could not speak or talk and by nothing was in my head means the poet could not think or remember.
