Lisp programmers see the list/tree structure of code. The various operators have specific sub list/tree patterns.
Learning to read Lisp code is largely learning theses patterns.
Since the Lisp code is usually semi-automatically formatted and indented according to these code patterns, they are not that difficult to see. Even generated code can be viewed in pretty printed version.
