Where banks all look like temples,
And temples look like banks,
Where does one count his blessings?
Where does one offer thanks?

You sense the holy places
By the faces in the ranks,
The bankrupt in the temples,
The worshipful in banks.

Poem: “Heavenly Vaults”
Originally published in At This Point in Rhyme (1976).
Included in Rhymes for the Irreverent (2006 edition,
Freedom from Religion Foundation)
