As far as I am aware, the poem is attributed solely to Owen.unless they had permission that could only happen today if it were out of copyright or if they had permission. (i'm pretty sure.) so the manusript would have to be 70 years older than the dead person
IMO there is a difference between someone completely rewriting a poem and suggesting amendments and alterations whch may or may not be implemented verbatim.
or in a non member of the Bern treaty
