ghunchu'wI' offered the alternatives:

I also prefer the latter. somehow "jeS" doesn't decsribe the level of the
experience (just ask my loDnal about me and the net), and the second
sentence better captures the rhythm of the original. Thanks.
About Klingon love poetry:
Wasn't "Up the Long Ladder" the ep where Worf had Kkligon measlees or
something, and as a reward for Pulaski's silence, Worf shared the tea
ceremony (after Pulaski took the antidote, of course) and the show ends with
her begging him to read her some Klingon love poetry?
