 i  had   this   idea  that   you   could 
  construct reality checks (as for lucid  
 dreaming, where  you'd  learn this habit 
 of  trying to sneakily break  the  rules 
 of   causality  or   physics,   such  as 
 flipping a light  switch  to see  if  it 
 actually   turns  off  the   lights,  or 
 trying  to  get   your  hands  to  phase 
 together. the thought being that  if any 
 of  the "checks" actually worked,  you'd 
 know  you  were   dreaming)  for  datura 
                  plants.                 
                                          
 i  thought,  you could get in the  habit 
 of  throwing things on the  ground, like 
    pens. meant to portray cigarettes,    
 because everyone who does datura  smokes 
 cigarettes. (they  in fact  aren't,  and 
 so   sooner  or  later  the   cigarettes 
 disappear,  and  they search the ground, 
 but  nothing's there.)  throwing pens on 
 the ground  and  picking them  back  up. 
 and  be really concerned if they weren't 
               to be there.               
                                          
 this  is  probably  not  how  deliriants 
 work.   but    i   had    the   thought.
