Looks like pokeweed to me. That is not the botanical name, though.

Thanks for your help! Do you know if this will start "poking" up all over my bed? I'm starting to look at everything suspiciously! Is it horrible to get rid of? I don't like the sound of it at all. I am a brown thumb, ignorant transplant to KY, and have never seen this before. Yikes. And I thought it was a good thing. :( Thanks again for all your help!
