Spice Protocol

Patrol route extended into the pantry cabinet. Sector elevation: second shelf. I discovered four glass spice jars arranged haphazardly upon the wooden plank. Labels faced random bearings. I commenced realignment protocol. Grasping the base of the paprika container, I rotated it steadily until the black printed lettering faced directly forward at zero degrees. The cinnamon and oregano jars resisted, their bases catching on dried grain particles. I cleared the footing with my boot, then shifted both into a straight formation, leaving exactly one thumb-width between glass rims. All four jars now present uniform forward orientation.
