AB In this paper I continue to examine the oral tradition of the Jbala (northern Morocco) fromthe cognitive perspective. I use the notions of frame (topics or scenes) and script (formulaic language),to demonstrate how the process of poetic creation works in actual time. For this purpose, I propose tolook at the genre of ayyu, a short improvised oral poetic genre intrinsic to the Jbala region. I start withan introductory section, where I briefly present the field of cognitive poetics, relevant terminology usedby scholars working in this field, and discuss last advances in it. Then I turn to the oral poetry of theJbala and demonstrate how exactly frames and scripts operate when poetry is performed live. Further, Ianalyze in detail several frames, typical of Jebli poetry together with the scripts associated with them,and then summarize my findings in the concluding section of the paper.
