1. Is Brian right? I believe that Brian is legally right because although he may have "stolen" it from her, she does not have any sort of copyright to back up her argument that she is the one who wrote the song.
Yet I also believe that Brian is morally wrong because he knows that she wrote the song but he took the credit for it.
2. What should Sarah do? I don't exactly know what she can do other than show the original written form of the poem, but since she didn't get any copyrights and it's been years since she wrote it, people may think that she is copying Brian and trying to take the credit for it instead of it being the other way around. She could talk to a lawyer and take this case to a courthouse or keep on negotiating with Brian until he gives her royalties in return.

Both of your answers do make sense and I also agree with them.
I totally agree because although Brian is morally wrong, in the legal aspect he has the right to do what he did.
