 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.
