Angelique

She passes by 
on Tuesdays and Thursdays
a little past three
in the afternoon

always wearing headphones
and bobbing her head 
to the beat of joy.   … do you need ‘of joy’?

He hears the sound 
of a vacuum in the hall
and creeps to the peephole … sounds better to me without the ‘and’
for his twenty-second fix
of her narcotic, swaying hips … double adjectives are bad 

tangoing with a Hoover … ‘tangoing with a’ sounds awkward. Maybe lose the ‘swaying’ in the previous line and bring it here?

to a song he cannot hear.

Nice one. Bates motel vibes
