Words on the way to work

Dubai
Lumps of concrete
Set in sand
If you want to study
Marine biology
Don’t start with a tin of sardines
Capital punishment
Since we are all going to die
It is not a penalty
Shrimps are
Insects of the oceans
Why don't we eat butterflies
If all life is related
Having the same origin
Aren’t we cannibals
Are surgeons
Red meat fanciers
Or vegetarians
