 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.
