 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.
