 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.
