latlh De'/Additional Information
The targ, a furry Klingon animal that more or less resembles a Terran pig, is often kept as a pet. Indeed, Lieutenant Commander Worf had one when he was young. It is also a
source of food, and heart of targ is a traditional Klingon dish. The tiny Klingon glob flies typically swarm about targs, undoubtedly making them that much more appealing. Pets, however, are for amusement; they are not associated with serious endeavors.

For a Klingon, sleeping is not only a time for revitalization of the body, it is also a time for spiritual or psychological renewal, with dreams playing an important role.
Thus, the idea of sleeping with targs---or, as a more literal translation of the proverb might put it, being accompanied by targs while sleeping---suggests an association with trivial rather than weighty matters. The result is waking up with, perhaps being taken over by, glob flies, or insignificant thoughts. The message, then, is to maintain focus on
that which is meaningful.

Morath wakes his father,
The old Kanjit,
His hearts* weak, but proud.

Type: sentence - Source: paq'batlh: Ground Book

You have awoken Kahless’s anger,
His muscles filled with rage,
His mind focused and clear.
