 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.
