So here I be
sitting in a tree.
Riding my bike up
and down.
My mind, on
foggy ground.
So here I am
sitting in this shop:
coffee pouring
drooling forgot.
I am forgetting
what it is like,
too be a young
tike. Thank god.
The pills are working

I would suggest adding tike to the third line, having the last line of the last stanza just as "Thank god too." I would also put a comma between drooling and forgot. Other then that I really like it, great use of unreliable narration.

Hi,
The four first lines didn't really make sense to me. A bike. In a tree?
Cheers.

The opening is simple and effective with images of child hood days climbing trees riding bikes but because of the title we also see the monkey riding a bike in a tree, makes me smile, I like the switch to drug controlled drooling and café coffee pots again strong images Another twist takes us from thinking you want to remember to thanking God you don't, I would drop the "to" in Thank god to, very much enjoyed, TOMH
