Like Oxygen

If sound waves 
travel the air waves
do we breath them in
like oxygen
to sustain us?

Do they foul up
our bodily functions
like politicians foul up
the body politic
and don't get caught?

Breath in breath out
go to sleep 
and pay no attention
to the monsters
under the bed!

A fine question poem that's worth finding the answer. I think i have a 5G-saurus under my bed as we speak.
