 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.
