Delete. Article about a term used in a single poem, which asserts but does not source that the term has been reified into a larger concept in literary criticism. And the only "source" cited here completely fails to verify any of the content; it just links to the call for papers to a literary symposium, with zero indication that "darling illusion" is one of the concepts that the symposium was calling for papers on. I'd have speedied this if I could find a speedy criterion to jam it into, frankly. Bearcat (talk) 22:55, 1 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
