 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.
