The cane-like stalk grows well over 10 feet high and arches to the ground. The cross section of the cane is a rounded pentagon as shown in the second photo.

Looks like Himalayan Blackberry, Rubus armeniacus. Wonderful berries but a terrible plant. Considered a noxious invasive species in N. America.

You can't have too many viburnums..
i disagree. That is far more likely to be the native
Rubus allegheniensis
, a very common Blackberry indigenous to eastern North America.
Allegheny Blackberry (
Rubus allegheniensis
)
