Introduction to Dialectical Materialism. I like how they explain Marx's definition of communism as not being a static form that you can reach, it's part of why, counties governed by communist parties don't regard themselves as having achieved communism. But rather communism is:
“the real movement which abolishes the present state of things” (Marx & Engels, Marx-Engels Collected Works, Volume 5, 2010, p. 49).
I like how they compare this to Octavia Butler's Parable of the Sower

All that you touch
You Change.

All that you Change
Changes you.

The only lasting truth
Is Change.
