>In My Craft or Sullen Art by Dylan Thomas
Right.

In my craft or sullen art
Exercised in the still night
When only the moon rages
And the lovers lie abed
With all their griefs in their arms


Quite well-hidden because of all the stuff above it, but still, it's a title, so it ought to snag the memory.

Correct, although someone already got it.

>54 Bukowski
He did use the name Henry but he's not in the author list.

>I definitely meant 20.
That's what I suspected.
