The trouble with this is that the head is not the se klama of
the throw. You would not say:

        le nu mi cecla lo rokci cu klama le do stedu
        My launching of a rock goes towards your head.

You could attach the {se ka'a} tag to the rock, though:

        mi cecla lo rokci pe seka'a le do stedu
        I launch a rock which has your head as destination.

It is the rock, not the launching, that travels towards the head.
At least that's how I see it.
