CHAPTER 1.
SEEDS OF STRIFE.

Vengeance of vultures, forever hovered overhead in readiness to strike. Greedy beasts, eyes bulging and casting below, seeking out the more vulnerable. Waiting to pounce and expand dynasties or Empires, even further. Here it was, life destined would be my land of birth to British immigrants and sewn as a Seed of Strife. Like many before them, an innocent family set out, searching out new lands of hope and glory.

The Burnett family, set sail from Southampton docks England, shortly after the second world war or the year 1947. Sailing across the seas to Cape Town, South Africa. Finally, my parents secured their resting places in the then emerging metropolis known as Southern Rhodesia. The same land, now better known as Zimbabwe or home of the mighty Victoria Falls.
It is my homeland, where the soul remains or birth place of a white skin, but of a black heart. Born and raised a white naturalised African, but no longer having rights of abode. Instead, now find myself encased in far flung dark and most unwelcome, harsh lands. Reflecting on past events with mixed feelings, of those who withdrew back to safe Isles, leaving behind much chaos for a majority, to inherit.

Colonialisation and exploitation of far off foreign lands, by a once mighty ruler of the waves. Now all history of course, from those setting out to secure new lands, while receiving full support and intrinsic backing of Governments. Shifting sands of International politics, would spotlight on events, a few decades later. Changing opinions and credentials, forcing even deeper lager mentalities to set in. Forcing white groups into forming colonies of their own within a wider colony.

If the same leaders on all sides, were to now reflect. Then wonder what their actions would now be! Far off rich lands, overflowing with natural resources and to be exploited. Benefiting Lords set in higher places, but in far off and safe shores. Exploitation
