#16 is trippy beyond belief. I need an explanation!!!

" I'm an indecisive writer, so I dabble in many forms — blogging, songwriting, poetry, and novel writing.

"I saw ball lightning. It was right after a thunderstorm passed by. I could see floating orbs in the sky. There were a couple of cars parked by an open field, and people were watching, so I parked and got out to join them. We all looked in silence until they blinked out one by one. There were at least ten of them, and they seemed to fly together in patterns. Sometimes they were fast, other times they slowed down and reversed direction. They seemed small, but I could tell this wasn't because they were far up in the sky. If I were to guess, they'd be about the size of a basketball, maybe a little larger. After it was done, we all got in our cars and left. I tried taking pictures, but it was dark, and the lights were too faint to make out. I should have recorded a video instead. I noticed someone was recording them at the scene, so I had kind of hoped I'd see it online at some point. But it's been two years now, so I guess not."

"You probably touched a Brugmansia. They are loaded with scopolamine and can cause you to see things that are not there. Inverse colours are a common hallucination from them. Brugmansia are a very common garden flower, despite their effects, because only small children will be affected by contact alone."
