There's nothing that I really want:

The stars tonight are rich and cold Above my house that vaguely broods Upon a path soon lost in dark.

My dinner plate is chipped all round
(It tells me that I've changed a lot);

My glass is cracked all down one side
(It shows there is a path for me).

My hands-I rest my head on them.

My eyes-I rest my mind on them.

There's nothing that I really need Before I set out on that path.
