 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.
