 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.
