    Note that the polygon has 'fill="none"'.

  Actually the event will be triggered if you click on the box,
meaning the outline of the box.  It won't be triggered over the
'fill' region, since there isn't any fill.  Fortunately you can
use the 'pointer-events' property to make it sensitive even
when there isn't any fill:

  pointer-events="all"

  You might want to read up on pointer-events to see what
other values might be useful to you.
