Customary Whines

From the help spilled forth customary whines
Moaned that their duties were fraught with deadlines
   That it couldn't be worse
   If they were in a hearse!
Time to exchange their complaints for complines





Note: 'Complines' are evening prayers traditionally
          recited before retiring for the night.
