 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.
