Only Joking (Haiku)

(Respect is defined as a feeling of deep admiration for someone or something elicited by their abilities, qualities, or achievements.)

Saying it in jest
A way to show disrespect
Say it not in jest

(Disingenuous has synonyms: dishonest, untruthful, false, deceitful duplicitous lying, mendacious, hypocritical.)

What is said in jest
Masks that which is truly meant
Disingenuous

Taking many forms
Potshots at authority
Appears innocent

Hiding true feelings
Can't say what I really mean
So I'll send a barb

In our heart of hearts
When you say only joking
We hear disrespect
