 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.
