(ICARUS)                 
                                          
 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.
