Vampire Sonnets Vi the Reopening

A unique bar with chicory coffee 
side by side our famous praline whiskey;
The ‘Black Heart Masquerade’ reinvention   
we have completed all the construction; 

Fangs out to raise the vibe we are after 
with each step your heart skips a bit faster; 
The feeling in the lounge achingly hot 
comparable to a dopamine shot; 

Opening ten minutes after sunset 
a man walked in that I won’t soon forget; 
He stood behind the bouncer at the door 
and headed toward me on the dance floor;

“Did you just step out of one of my dreams? “
I replied, “You can call me Inalem.”
