Rendering wireframe no-colour cube with D3DVERTEXELEMENT9 structure

I'm pretty new to this structure and the book I'm learning it from is absurdly unintuitive to me. I triple checked the code but I can't figure out why I can't get an image to pop up. The background is white and the HUD is there but the cube won't show up. It was the same when i tried to make it in colour.

I'm a friggin idiot. I set the world projection matrix and then didn't use it. Sorry for bothering you guys.
