OLD SPEAR

I have tasted blood 
On my lips 
I have no compassion 
They say, 
I have smeared a few, 
Probably many lives 
But no one disagreed - 
"I was faithful to the ones 
That had my back"
I deserve no mercy 
As I have given none 
And along with all others 
I was thrown into the armory 
No longer useful

(The spear never kills the person that throws it, but still it is treated without respect once it is blunt)
