True poetry is in everyday language, it is present in every tongue, but more difficult to extract, weighed and even listen to as we belch it out, whereas, lies are of a different sort. Lies are tales in themselves, and its motive will always be without gaining attention whilst the objective for such an act varies from gaining control to pride or saving face when diplomatically required. After all lying is an act that makes all humans taller than we are in true life. "It's clear that Abbey Laurel-Smith will never run out of subject matter, with the way he makes associations and gives equal priority to his mind and his feelings." William Zimmer, contributing critic to the New York Times

Abbey Laurel-Smith (Abiodun Oladewa) was on December 27, 1965, at Igboora, about a hundred kilometers away from Ibadan, in the Western part of Nigeria, West Africa. He studied Fine Art at The Polytechnic of Ibadan, Nigeria and started practicing as a full-time artist in 1988. He was made an official of the Society of Nigerian Artists in 1989 before leaving for England, the United Kingdom in 1990. Whilst in England, he authored numerous exhibitions of his paintings and drawings and was lucky enough to share an exhibition platform with His Royal Highness, The Prince of Wales at Roy Miles Gallery, in Mayfair, London, in the summer of 1993. He also studied History of Art and Heritage Management in England and Venice, courtesy of The University of Buckingham, its prestigious Waddesdon Manor and Oxford Brookes University, all in neighborly Buckinghamshire and Oxfordshire. In 2001, he received a Dorothy Buley Fellowship for a Pastel Artist at the Vermont Studio Center, Johnson, Vermont. He was The Artist in Residence at The Art Center of South Florida, where he authored the famous "take away art" exhibition, in the first half of the year 2002 and was also the South Florida's Artist of the month in November of the same year. Now a Maine resident, he has lived in the states of New Jersey (Matawan) Florida (Miami Beach) since the year 2000 and has just been given a writers' award in Poetry, by the Vermont Studio Center, Johnson, Vermont.

Taschenbuch. Etat : Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - I lied, a follow up of my first book of collected poems 'let me be, your absent friend'. It was designed to push further, the walls of self-correction and conscience that was set in motion by the former. The difference here is that, the fate of the subject in nature, as epitomized by Kantian Blues and as a follow-up from the first book, becomes more important that the thing it's own self was supposed to be, within nature itself. Thus making the nature of pure reason (true or lie) and practical reason (freedom and good so to say) more plastic and a bit exploitative for any reader's desired will. In short, many will not be too wrong, if reference were made to this, as an entertainment hiding behind a given-time, a place and a society - after all lies and art are susceptible to both.
