Effigies

I asked "please do not burn me in effigy." Actually, that is incorrect; I said "promise me that you will not burn me in effigy."

What I should have asked is "promise not to create an effigy of me." At the time I thought to myself, to be symbolically destroyed would be terrible but I am learning that it is not as terrible as being created.
