 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.
