 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.
