| Notes | Poem describes the killing of Antoine de Saint-Exupéry (author of the Little Prince) during World War II. The plane was believed to have been shot down by a German pilot who later went on to be a schoolteacher, and who expressed a wish that it hadn't been Exupéry that he had shot down, as he was a fan of his work. |
