 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.
