 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.
