 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.
