 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.
