 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.
