Not bad. It's as excruciatingly easy to read as the "Dick and Jane"
stories I assume its style is based on. :-) I do have one concern
with the usage of a conjunction, though.

The {'ej} in the next to last line seems inappropriate to me. Klingon
doesn't use "and" to indicate sequence the way English sometimes does.
I'd either use {vaj} instead or just leave it out completely.
