 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.
