4 Bar Friday

Having been raised in Portland, in the thick of the Rip City era, the Portland Trailblazers are my hometown NBA team that I would quite literally bleed for. Making the team extra special this year is our sophomore sensation, Damian Lillard, and his ice cold way on the court. However, making this guy extra special is the fact that, OFF THE COURT, he has created #4BarFriday — a social media sensation that has wordsmiths from around the nation sounding off in four-bar chunks of rhyme.

Well, as a fanatical wordsmith AND Trailblazer fan, I’ve decided it’s only fitting that I get involved. That said, below you’ll find my running stream of weekly #4BarFriday posts — there’s only a couple right now but I plan to add one each week, so check back often (and much).

WEEK 1: What might have been can yet still be …

WEEK 2: Don’t whisper softly the things you want loudly to be …

WEEK 3: Clover I’ll be lucky to find you.

WEEK 4: Look there, see that gleam? It’s the sun, and your eyes the beam.

WEEK 5: That boy in my war is still alive and he will fight til Dying Day.
