 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.
