 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.
