The position of the itemize doesn’t change because \subject starts
a new line and “monkey” is only the first visible word in this line,
change the subject definition to
\setuphead[subject][alternative=command,command=\MyHead]
and the position of the itemize is now correct.

Force horizontal mode for the table with
\dontleavehmode\bTABLE
