 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.
