 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.
