An allusion is a figure of speech whereby the author refers to a subject matter such as a place, event, or literary work by way of a passing reference. It is up to the reader to make a connection to the subject being mentioned.
If you allude to something else it might give the reader something else to refer to, or to think about. In a war poem, an allusion to Flanderâs fields might lead the reader to think of death, or an allusion to the mushroom cloud might lead the reader to think of a nuclear holocaust or the end of the world.
