Structure

The Fox & the Crow

Dramatic Cycles

• ((foxTakeCheese,foxHasCheese,fox,animals),((foxTakeCheese,crowHasCheese,crow,animals))

If the fox takes the cheese, he is satisfied, not the crow.

• ((crowTakeCheese,crowHasCheese,crow,animals),((crowTakeCheese,foxHasCheese,fox,animals))

And reciprocally, if the crow takes the cheese, he is satisfied, not the fox.

• ((sing,beAdmired,crow),(sing,cheeseFalls,crowHasCheese,crow))

Singing enables the crow to be admired (in his eyes) but also leads to loosing the cheese.

The process of influence is not in the structure itself.
