 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.
