 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.
