You are both cruel and wrong. Prime matter is an abstract limiting case of matter as potency: "pure" potentiality.

Prime matter is "real" only insofar as it, though just barely removed from non-existence, is not non-existence.

As I write: "To say that prime matter exists is to say that it is potentially, given the appropriate agent, all possible things" but no actual thing.
