 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.
