If someone didn't find someone else attractive or "anything" (whatever that means), then why would they be "primed" or "very very curious"? Physical attraction is usually the first reason someone is intrigued by a stranger, since they don't know much else about such a person. With the exception of the clever title, I don't see anything exceptional here.
but the image needs to be clearer. im not sure what is happening in the last line, and while ambiguity has its appeal, in poetry you cannot waste any words - if you can rephrase that last line or add some more description earlier, ti might be easier for the reader (or me anyways) to figure out what you are trying to say. it's a good start though.
i must have been half asleep, geez. cute, very cute!
A delightful poem! Clever and entertaining-- a well-deserved "E"!
